In readiness for the peak tourist season, eight European Union consuls assessed the preparedness and capacity of hospitals in Mombasa to handle medical emergencies.
The move comes amid a robust plan by the Ministry of Tourism to progressively increase the number of visitors from 2.1 million to 5 million annually by 2027.
The Consuls from Belgium, Hungary, France, Ireland, Poland, Finland, Austria and Denmark were impressed by investments made by hospitals in Mombasa.
They visited the Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital, Aga Khan Hospital and Mombasa Hospital.
