Narok Governor Patrick Ole Ntutu has expressed confidence in the transformative impact of the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) Narok Campus and the Narok County Referral Hospital, stating that the full operationalization of the two institutions would significantly improve healthcare delivery and medical training in the region.
Speaking during an inspection tour of the facilities, Governor Ntutu said the institutions would not only bolster the practical training of KMTC students but also enhance access to quality, specialized healthcare for residents of Narok and surrounding areas. "With the operationalization of the KMTC Narok branch, our focus as an administration now shifts to preparing the Narok County Referral Hospital to not only support the learning of our KMTC students but also to provide advanced medical care for the residents of Narok and beyond," the Governor stated.
The KMTC Narok campus has seen remarkable growth since its establishment, with student enrollment surging from 40 to 337 in just one year.
The institution has also expanded its academic offerings, now including programmes such as Certificate in IT, Nursing, Diploma in Clinical Medicine, Health Records and Information Technology, among others.
