Welcome to Arrow Web Hospital blogger

Dear all

Welcome to Arrow Web Hospital - Arrow Web Hospital focuses on providing primary care, HIV/AIDS mitigation, family planning, ante-natal care and prevention of mother-to-child transmission. The hospital provides medical in and outpatient care, laboratory services, and an urgent care center. The hospital has registered more than 34,276 total patients to date. The hospital treats between 200-254 patients per week. Arrow Web Hospital is accredited by NHIF and accepts NHIF cards. Our main purpose is to improve the lives of countless suffering people in the slums of Kayole-Soweto.

Arrow Kenya opened Arrow Web Hospital in February of 2005 as a clinic located in a 2-room house. We began with 3 staff members-a nurse, a laboratory technician and receptionist. We operated in this 2-room home until November of 2006. By this time, the community demand for our services was very high. We had registered more than 5,000 patients.

Our seven-member Board of Managers called a meeting to discuss next steps and decided to hold a community fundraiser to raise the money required to rent a bigger building and accommodate more patients. This event was successful and we were able to rent a bigger building, an 11-room house, as well as purchase emergency equipment. With a bigger building, patients began coming to the hospital in greater numbers. Once we were settled in the new building, we were able to begin operating as a full hospital with both in and outpatient services. The Kenyan Medical and Dentist Board recommended Arrow Web Hospital and provided us with our current operating license.

Since then, we have employed 14 employees including ;

2 Clinical Officers of Medicine-which head the hospital
4 Registered Nurses
3 Enrolled Nurse Midwives
2 Laboratory technicians
1 Pharmacist
1 Cook
1 Guard
