FIGHT AGAINST DIABETES STEPS UP WITH THE REDCROSS PATNERSHIP.

The county patnership with Danish and kenyan Redcross has seen construction of Non communicable Diseases(NCD) clinic as well as the launch of the NCD project at Kanyakine level 4 hospital to ensure particularly prevention of Diabetes and hypertension.
According to Dr kanana Kimonye the chief officer Health the reason for chosing Kanyakine hospital was because South Imenti has the highest number of diabetic patients with a record of over 30,000 under treatment.
DR Dorothy Nkonge , Danish Redcross country manager noted Meru had fostered Donor confidence and willingness to alleviate various health concerns for its people hence the reason for its patnership in ending non communicable diseases.
Lilian Mwebia a resident thanked the county and Recross community for bringing such an initiative in a subcounty grappling with such a high diabetic burden.
