Siaya County Referral Hospital (SCRH), in collaboration with Cure Kenya International, yesterday conducted an in-reach program that provided vital assessments for children with disabilities. This initiative targeted individuals aged 18 and below, offering thorough evaluations for various conditions. The outcome of this program was the booking of numerous children for corrective surgery at CURE Children's Hospital of Kenya in Kijabe, which will be provided free of charge.
This impactful assessment attracted over one hundred clients, many of whom are now slated for life-changing corrective surgeries.
Treza Onyango, the hospital team lead, lauded the Kijabe team for their commendable efforts, emphasizing the positive impact of early identification within the County. She highlighted the success in reaching even very young children, attributing this to comprehensive training programs for community health assistants, who in turn educated Community Health Promoters (CHPs), religious leaders, and other stakeholders on early disability identification through observation.
Siaya County Referral Hospital sincerely thanks every parent and guardian who attended the exercise and all the stakeholders that made sure the day was a success.
