Home Healthcare in Kenya: Supply Models That Scale

10 February 2026

Home-based care is expanding as hospitals shorten lengths of stay and chronic disease prevalence rises. Successful programmes depend on predictable supply — not ad-hoc purchases by family caregivers.

Components of a home-care formulary

  • Wound care: dressings, cleansers, compression where indicated
  • Respiratory: oxygen accessories, nebuliser consumables
  • Mobility: wheelchairs, walkers, hospital beds for hire or purchase
  • Hygiene: adult incontinence products, skin care, disinfectants

Caregiver support

Brief training on product use reduces readmissions. Distributors who offer printed guides and telephone support add measurable value to NGO and private home-care operators.
