In the last quarter we conducted a comprehensive medical in reach camp with generous support in the form of medication donations from Malibu Pharmacy in partnership with Rotary Club of Lavington at Kibera D.O dispensary.
This initiative aimed to bring essential health services closer to the community, particularly targeting underserved populations with limited access to medical care.
The camp provided a wide range of health interventions including general consultations, diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses, health education, and cervical cancer screening. Special emphasis was placed on early detection and preventive care, especially for women’s health. The medical team was able to serve a diverse group of patients, recording detailed data on the prevalence of various conditions and the demographic distribution of attendees.
This report provides a summary of the medical findings, statistical data on gender
distribution and illnesses presented, cervical cancer screening outcomes.
