Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>The Kenyatta National Hospital adopt-a-bed campaign has so far raised 222 beds. The latest donation of 12 beds came from the KNH Executive Management Committee Members on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo far we have received 222 beds from various donors and we still have a long way to go. We would like to appeal to more donors to join us as we aim to achieve the target,\u201d KNH board chairman George Ooko said.<\/p>\n

The campaign, which started towards the end of last year, targets to raise 2,000 beds. The adopt-a-bed campaign was initiated to provide enhanced comfort to patients during their stay in hospital.<\/p>\n

The idea is to replace the old beds the hospitals has had for decades. A significant number of beds are obsolete and those in usable condition have limited functionalities required for the provision of specialised treatment offered in the hospital.<\/p>\n

The hospital management said most beds at the facility were procured when the hospital was established in 1901, hence do not offer the comfort a patient requires for ease of recovery.<\/p>\n

The specifications require that the bed should be secure, comfortable, adjustable and comes with a washable mackintosh mattress. The bed should also have adjustable side rails that will ensure safety of the patient and prevent falls.<\/p>\n
