They will work from the field to mark the County's Makueni Public Health Week. The medical officers will be required to routinely choose one or more health facilities in the county and camp there for the whole week offering specialized healthcare services.
The Public Health Week begins on Wednesday September 14, 2022 in Mbooni sub-county.
Directors and Medical Superintendents in the Health Services department will lead the campaign and monitor how health services and medicines are dispensed at the facilities.
Governor Mutula Jnr said the decision was borne from the realization that the county has a huge number of talented medical specialists whose services are not available to the residents.
He said it was pitiful that such specialists operate only from the county headquarters and in offices while residents are forced to seek services elsewhere at exorbitant costs.
