Machakos County Governor Dr Alfred Mutua has instructed the Minister of Health to launch investigations over poor treatment of patients at the Machakos Hospital's casualty.
In a message posted on his Facebook page on Saturday, the governor said human dignity and professional conduct should be exercised at all times, adding that his government will not tolerate shoddy and unprofessional conduct by its officers.
"Human dignity and professional conduct must be exercised. Machakos will not tolerate shoddy and unprofessional conduct by its officers,” said Mutua.
The governor said that due to the Maendeleo Chap Chap initiative, Machakos hospitals are the cleanest and most organised in the country, thus the need to match the infrastructure with efficient services and respect for the dignity of life.
The governor promised to ensure service delivery in the county is at its best.
