Bayer East Africa, in partnership with the Kenya Water for Health Organization (KWAHO), has renovated three Handwashing Facilities at the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) in Nairobi. The facilities will serve the over 30,000 people who visit the facility every day and close to 6000 staff members who work there.
The upgrade, which has taken three months to complete, is geared towards providing access to clean and safe water for both drinking and handwashing purposes. This is important in promoting the prevention of healthcare-associated infections, especially in a facility such as KNH which hosts large numbers of patients, visitors, and staff every day.
