At the Peoples Party of Kenya (PPK), we believe that healthcare
is a right, not a privilege. Our health policy aims to create an inclusive,
responsive, and equitable system that ensures every Kenyan, regardless of
income or location, can access quality medical services when they need
them.
1. Universal and Affordable
Healthcare
We are dedicated to ensuring that no Kenyan is denied medical care due
to cost. PPK supports the full implementation and enhancement of Kenya’s new
universal health coverage system, including the Social Health Insurance
Fund (SHIF). We aim to:
- Expand
health coverage to all citizens, especially vulnerable groups.
- Support
mechanisms that protect families from catastrophic health expenses.
- Promote
awareness and accessibility of the new national health financing schemes.
2. Training and Empowerment
of Medical Personnel
PPK recognizes that a strong healthcare system depends on skilled and
motivated professionals. We will:
- Provide
regular training and professional development for doctors, nurses, and
health workers.
- Ensure
fair compensation and better working conditions.
- Deploy
health workers equitably across all counties, especially in underserved
regions.
3. Medical Infrastructure
Development
To meet the needs of a growing population, we will:
- Build
and modernize hospitals, clinics, and health centers in both urban and
rural areas.
- Equip
facilities with modern diagnostic tools and essential medical equipment.
- Strengthen
the supply chain for medicines and critical supplies through accountable
systems.
4. Inclusive and Responsive
Health Policy
PPK will lead in shaping policies that are informed by community needs
and health equity. This includes:
- Tailoring
services to address maternal health, chronic diseases, youth health, and
mental health.
- Integrating
traditional and modern healthcare where appropriate.
- Supporting
preventive healthcare and public health campaigns.
5. Strategic Partnerships
and Global Collaboration
To expand resources and expertise, we will:
- Collaborate
with international development partners, NGOs, and private sector players.
- Support
research, innovation, and digital health systems.
- Strengthen
Kenya’s capacity to manage health emergencies and pandemics.
Our Vision
A Kenya where every citizen can access timely, respectful, and effective healthcare — powered by a just and sustainable health system.
