Expectant mothers, newborns and children under five years in Kisii County are set to benefit from a KShs.117million Maternal and Child Health project.
On March 21, Kisii Deputy Governor Joash Maangi laid the foundation stone for a new maternal and child health block and a theatre at Kenyenya Sub County Hospital in Bomachoge Borabu.
The project funded by the Aga Khan Development Network and dubbed ‘Access to Quality Care through Extending and Strengthening Health Systems (AQCESS)’ will significantly boost availability, quality and utilization of essential services for expectant mothers, newborns and children under five.
The four-year project whose implementation began in 2016 will also benefit 10 community units through improvement of facilities and capacity building for health workers.
