In any area you visit, your first priority should be a health and medical facility and for that matter, I have made this page to keep you updated about all the best places to visit in Mombasa City.

Kenya has one of the worst healthcare records in the world, but the development of local facilities and training of volunteers has brought some hope to Kenyans living in rural area.

Talk to locals in Kenya, about what worries them most in life and the answer will probably be their health and the health of their family.

Look at the statistics and it's easy to see why. Despite recordinvestment over the past years, Kenya's healthcare performance is still ranked as one of the worst in the world.

MEDICAL INSURANCE :

You can’t assume your insurance will go with you when you travel to Kenya. It’s very important to find out BEFORE you leave whether or not your medical insurance will cover you overseas. You need to ask your insurance company two questions:

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE

• Do not drink tap water unless it has been boiled, filtered, or chemically disinfected.

• Do not drink unbottled beverages or drinks with ice.

• Do not eat fruits or vegetables unless they have been peeled or cooked.

• Avoid cooked foods that are no longer piping hot

INSECT AND TICK PROTECTION

Wear long sleeves, long pants, hats and shoes (rather than sandals). • For rural and forested areas, boots are preferable, withpants tucked in, to prevent tick bites.

SWIMMING AND BATHING PRECAUTIONS

• Avoid swimming, wading, or rafting in bodies of fresh water, such as lakes, ponds, streams, or rivers.

KENYA HEALTH CARE GENERAL ADVICE

Bring adequate supplies of all medications in their original containers, clearly labeled.
