"content": "is high time we created other facilities to ease congestion and make those in charge of the hospitals operate under bearable circumstances. We need to look at children’s health. I want to reiterate that all over this country, the number of orphans we have is increasing by the day. Sometimes patients from some parts of the country are too sick to go to Kenyatta National Hospital or Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital on their own. So, another problem is created. The person coming all the way from Ntimaru, for example, to come to take care of the patient in Kenyatta National Hospital has no place to live or a has nothing to eat. These are some of the issues we should consider. If we can have referral hospitals near where such people are and facilities are provided such that people can be taken care of near where they live, we will do this country a very good service. We may not need to over-emphasise this. Our people need to be healthy, need to be treated and need to have access to good medical facilities. This is a matter of life and should be given priority. Everyone has a right to life."
