About Shifah
A community-rooted hospital growing into a trusted care centre.
Shifah Hospital & Dialysis Centre began in 2012 as a counselling and wellness centre, then developed into a Level 4 medical facility focused on primary healthcare, psychosocial support and clinical services for vulnerable individuals and families.
The facility was registered under the Registration of Business Names Act in 2015, licensed by the County Government of Trans-Nzoia in 2016, and licensed by the Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Board in December 2016.
