Ram hospital mortuary in Kisii town is set to be renovated to increase capacity of the facility as a way of serving its clients, a top manager has said.
Speaking at the hospital on Wednesday, the hospital's director, Vismal Patel, said the official process of renovation will commence on Monday next week and is set to take at least one month.
He said the mortuary's capacity will be increased from the current 15 to 35 so that they serve interests of needy clients.
“As from next week, we will officially commence the process of renovating our mortuary. The current capacity is not sufficient hence we had to take that affirmative action,” said Patel.
“I am expecting the process to take around one month because we have budgeted for everything and the contractor has confirmed his readiness,” he added.
Besides the mortuary, the director said plans were in place to acquire a cervical cancer machine from India to handle increased cases of women suffering from the disease.
“We are not only going to concentrate on expanding our mortuary. We have plans to purchase a cervical cancer machine from India and we hope it will be in the country very soon,” Patel said.
Ram is one of the leading private hospitals in Kisii town, offering clinical courses.
