    "content": "I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.531 to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Health on the matter of county-wide concern, namely, the alarming state of disrepair and collapse of Pap Onditi Hospital in Kisumu County. Pap Onditi Hospital, once a vital lifeline for thousands of residents in lower Nyakach and neighbouring areas, today suffers from acute shortage of medical personnel, essential drugs, basic diagnostic equipment and critical infrastructure. Patients seeking medical attention are routinely turned away or referred to distant facilities, endangering lives and worsening health inequalities. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in this Statement, the Committee on Health should address the following- (1) The status of staffing, medical supplies and operational infrastructure at Pap Onditi Hospital. (2) Interventions that the Ministry of Health (MoH) and the Kisumu County Government are undertaking to rehabilitate the Hospital and restore full service. (3) The immediate and long-term plans, including budgetary allocations, aimed at upgrading Pap Onditi Hospital to meet the health care needs of the residents. (4) Timelines for the implementation of emergency measures to stabilise services and prevent further loss of life at Pap Onditi Hospital."
