Operation International has been working with the leadership in Kakamega, Kenya. The total knee replacement surgeries will take place at the County General Hospital, Kakamega. The goal is to have a long-term collaboration with the local hospital and surgeons to provide care for the local patients. Our secondary goals are to train the local surgeons with complex cases, train the local staff, and at the same time establish patient care protocols to help improve outcomes. The mission will consist of approximately 50 total knee replacements for patients severely affected by arthritis.
This area/hospital serves a population of 1.5 Million residents. Patients severely affected by knee arthritis will be served.
