Katani General Hospital – Katani, Kenya – October 16 – 21, 2022
Operation Medical is delighted to continue missions again with our first outreach since January 2020 and the Pandemic “Pause”. The mission took place from October 16–21 at Katani General Hospital in Katani, Machakos County, Kenya. During the week, we conducted a surgical camp as well as development of a breast cancer screening treatment program.
Katani Hospital is a private multi-specialty community hospital located in Katani suburbs of Nairobi, Kenya approximately 25 kilometers from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport of Nairobi on Katani Road off of Mombasa Highway. The area was formerly a sisal plantation farm until real estate took over in the past decade. The hospital offers a 24-hour full-service pharmacy, laboratory, labor and delivery service, emergency services and medical admissions. The Hospital opened in October 2018 and was founded by Modesta Vesonder and Terrance L. Baker, who are the founders of a non-profit charity called Sollay Kenyan Foundation.
