When deadly diseases erupt from anywhere on the globe and threaten public health in Kenya, when policy and resource priorities shift, when emergent disasters tragically upend a vulnerable life in Kenya, the state department for public health and professional standards is already moving and mostly on the ground to protect the health of Kenyans and her visitors.

From the Monkey pox border surveillance in port Victoria Busia county, through cholera outbreaks in refugee camps in Turkana, to Kalazar outbreak containment in Mandera , not to mention distributing mosquito nets in Kwale county to prevent malaria deaths, the state department, it’s partners and machinery has every inch of Kenya covered. Our people are on the ground together with the 47 county governments, ensuring round the clock efforts across the entire Kenya to protect lives: millions at a time. Without tiring, our leadership, staff and partners often risk their safety and sacrifice their whole to control and prevent threats to the health of the public in ways that others won’t — or can’t.

If you believe in securing health within Kenyan Boarders, not just by words, but through tangible deeds when and where it counts – kwa ground – then support and join us to stay true to our call of duty.
