The World Federation of KSIMC, in keeping with its definitive aim of equipping and empowering our Health Institutions with optimal tools and resources, recently purchased a much-needed Alera Clinical Chemistry System for the Jaffery Medical Centre in Mombasa.

Mombasa is the second largest municipality in Kenya with a population of approximately 939, 370 people with a poverty rate of 37.6% (KIHBS, 2012)

The Jaffery Medical Clinic was established in 2004 and offers affordable basic healthcare services to the local community. The World Federation provided the clinic with an ACE Alera Clinical Chemistry System to increase output and better there services.

Services Provided:
The clinic is open for 6 hours a day and provides affordable healthcare at a marginal fee of Ksh 200 per patient. The Jaffery Medical Centre was running on a loss and the reason of the loss is that the centre still required an additional 80/90 patients on a daily basis to enable it to break even. The procurement of the Ace Alera Clinical Chemistry System will increase the patients turn over which in turn will bring in more income and make the centre self-sufficient.

The machine has enhanced the clinic’s efficiency and reliability in the tests conducted in its laboratory which in turn has increased confidence in its patients test results. The clinic is now able to provide quick and accurate results of several tests that are carried out simultaneously.
 

The World Federation is thankful to Beta Charitable Trust for contributing towards the purchase of this much needed machine
