Dreamland Mission Hospital (DMH) has been providing quality healthcare to the rural community in the Mount Elgon and Bungoma county of western Kenya since 1999.
DMH aims to work with government hospitals in order to develop and provide gap-filling services for the health care needs of the community. DMH does not look to make a profit – patients are enrolled on Kenya’s National Hospital Insurance Fund which allows the hospital to claim back many of its costs from the government. We have a fund set aside for patients who may not be able to access NHIF.
DMH runs a comprehensive outpatient service, including a 24/7 assessment by clinical officers, basic laboratory testing, pharmacy, orthopaedics, physiotherapy, child welfare clinics, family planning, and ante-natal and post-natal care. DMH is staffed by over 120 Kenyan clinical and support staff as well as international volunteers.
Dreamland Mission Hospital has gone from strength to strength. The infrastructure has been upgraded, with new facilities being added, including a Diagnostic Centre, Special Baby Unit and further wards, and a new theatre block. Now seeing over 50,000 patients per year this hospital is having a huge impact on the local community.
