The Epuka Uchafu Afya Nyumbani campaign continues to translate awareness into concrete action across Nakuru County, reinforcing the link between a clean environment and public health.

In Molo Municipality, a joint site meeting brought together the Departments of Lands, Infrastructure, Health, and Environment, alongside the municipal team and contractors, to address persistent drainage challenges in Molo town. The engagement underscored that flooding, waste management, and poor drainage are critical public health concerns that require coordinated, multi-sectoral solutions.

At the facility level, Ngarisha Zahanati activities were carried out at Kabatini and Engachura Health Centres in Bahati Sub-County; Maai Mahiu Health Centre, Industrial Area Dispensary, Kuresoi Health Centre, Lalwet Dispensary, and Eburru Dispensary. These clean-up and improvement efforts aim to enhance hygiene standards and create safer, more dignified care environments for patients and health workers.

Public health teams also intensified community sensitisation on food safety, general, and personal hygiene, while conducting follow-up on school health programmes at Utafiti Comprehensive School. In Naivasha Sub-County, Community Health Promoters were sensitised to strengthen household-level actions and ensure consistent follow-up at the community level.

In Bahati’s Heshima area, drainage within a residential plot was unblocked following health education sessions that emphasised cleanliness as a shared responsibility. Additional clean-up exercises were undertaken at Beestone Biashara Centre and the Chief’s Office in Mukungugu Location, Njoro Sub-County. At Kasarani, religious leaders partnered with public health officers to mobilise worshippers for a community clean-up, demonstrating the power of collective action.

The ongoing campaign reflects Nakuru County’s commitment to preventive healthcare by addressing environmental risks at their source and fostering a culture of cleanliness and shared responsibility across communities.
