Description

Mikulinzi Community Hospital is a private community health facility that established by Kenyan Doctor and later approved to operate from 2014 and Kenya Medical Practitioners and the Dentist Board registered the facility. The nursing home has been providing care and treatment to the people in the poor community of Mowlem, Saika and Dandora estates and its environs. The facility offers services including outpatient, inpatient, laboratory, minor surgeries, pharmacy, antenatal and child welfare clinic services. It serves an average of 20 patients per day. The facility has a total of 30 inpatient beds and 2-day care observation beds with labor ward that caters for maternity services. Most of the people served by the nursing home live below poverty level and therefore the facility has been of great help to the community as it provides health care services at a subsidized cost.
