Clinical Governance

Our clinical governance

Care at home should carry the same accountability as care in a ward. Nyumbani Medical is built around clear clinical leadership, physician oversight, and documented standards.

Learn about our team β†’

1

Officer in Charge

A registered nurse serves as the Officer in Charge, accountable for clinical standards, staffing, and day-to-day care quality across every case.

2

Retained Medical Officer

A retained Medical Officer provides physician oversight, reviews complex cases, and supports nurses with prescribing and escalation decisions.

3

Hospital partnerships

Formal MOUs with admitting hospitals mean that when a patient needs inpatient care, the transfer is fast and coordinated.

4

Clinical audits

Care plans, documentation, and outcomes are reviewed through regular internal clinical audits to keep our standards accountable.

Working With Your Doctor

How we work with your doctor

  • We coordinate directly with your prescribing physician, following their treatment plan rather than replacing it.
  • Clinical services that require a prescription β€” injectable medication, wound protocols, oxygen, and controlled drugs β€” are delivered strictly against a valid prescription.
  • We keep clear clinical records at home and share progress notes with your doctor so the whole team stays aligned.
  • If your condition changes, our nurses report back to your doctor and adjust care on their instruction.
Safety & Escalation

Safety and escalation

  • A clinician is reachable 24/7 for clinical on-call β€” day, night, and weekends.
  • Every care plan includes a clear hospital transfer protocol so families know exactly what happens in an emergency.
  • MOUs with admitting hospitals mean faster, coordinated transfers when inpatient care is needed.
  • Life-threatening emergencies always go to hospital first β€” home care is never a substitute for emergency services.
In Their Words

Clinical care families trust

β€œMy father came home after major surgery and I was terrified. The nurse managed his medication and wound care, and spoke to his surgeon directly. It felt like the hospital had come home with us.”
Grace N.
Daughter, Runda
β€œThe chronic-disease nurse caught my blood pressure creeping up before it became dangerous and coordinated a change with my physician. That kind of monitoring is priceless.”
Samuel W.
Client, South B
β€œDuring my mother's palliative care, the team kept her comfortable and dignified, and were reachable at any hour. I will always be grateful.”

Common Questions

Answers for families

Are your nurses licensed?
Yes. Our nurses are registered with the Nursing Council of Kenya (NCK), and Nyumbani Medical is licensed by the KMPDC as a Level 2 Home-Based Care Service, with a retained Medical Officer providing physician oversight.
Do I need a prescription for clinical services?
For any prescribed treatment β€” injectable medication, controlled drugs, wound-care protocols, oxygen, and physiotherapy referrals β€” yes. We deliver these against a valid prescription and coordinate with your treating doctor.
Can you work with my existing doctor?
Absolutely. We follow your physician's treatment plan, share clinical records and progress notes, and adjust care only on their instruction. We complement your doctor, we don't replace them.
What happens in an emergency?
Every care plan includes a hospital transfer protocol. A clinician is on-call 24/7, and our MOUs with admitting hospitals allow fast, coordinated transfers. Life-threatening emergencies go directly to hospital.
Do you accept NHIF / SHA or insurance?
We can provide detailed invoices and clinical documentation to support NHIF/SHA and private insurance claims. Coverage depends on your scheme and policy β€” our team will help you understand what applies and can liaise with insurers where possible.
How is home care different from hiring a private nurse directly?
You get clinical governance β€” an Officer in Charge, physician oversight, documented care plans, audits, cover for leave, and 24/7 escalation β€” rather than relying on a single individual with no backup or accountability.
