Mandatory CCTV cameras, limited patient visits, compulsory visitor screening, and routine safety checks are some of the fresh directives issued by Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale to all national referral hospitals.
Speaking on Monday July 28, Duale ordered national referral hospitals across the country to comply with the requirements immediately or face consequences.
He was speaking at Kenyatta National Hospital, where two patients were murdered in the wards this year.
The murders are believed to have been committed by the same person.
