Makueni nurse fired for threatening patient to buy drugs from specific chemist
The Makueni County government has terminated the contract of a nurse attached to Kee Level 3 Hospital in Kaiti Sub-County over misconduct.
According to a letter dated October 22, 2025 seen by Citizen Digital from Kaiti Sub-County Medical Officer of Health Dr. Philip Maiko, the nurse, identified as Nicodemus, was notified of the decision and directed to hand over before exiting the office.
The decision follows allegations that the nurse sent a text message threatening a patient who failed to buy medicines from a specific chemist he had directed.
Sources within the county health department said the matter was reported to the sub-county office, prompting an internal review that led to the nurse’s dismissal.
