The Nairobi Hospital has issued a public notice assuring patients, staff, and stakeholders that services at the facility remain uninterrupted despite ongoing governance challenges.

In a statement on Monday, March 16, Nairobi Hospital Board Chairman Barcley Onyambu assured the public that the institution remains fully operational and accessible to patients seeking treatment.

He confirmed that medical and support teams are continuing to provide services across the facility.

“The Nairobi Hospital wishes to assure all staff, patients and stakeholders that the Hospital remains stable, fully operational, and open to the public as normal. Our clinical and support teams continue to deliver services across all departments, and we remain fully committed to providing quality healthcare to our patients and the wider community,” he said.

Onyambu also highlighted the hospital’s governance structure, noting that its operations are guided by established frameworks that have been in place for years.

“For over seven decades now, The Nairobi Hospital has operated under the Articles of Association of the Kenya Hospital Association, which provide the governance framework guiding oversight, accountability and institutional stewardship.

“This framework continues to underpin our commitment to transparency, responsible management and high standards of governance,” he added.

The hospital acknowledged that there are ongoing legal proceedings related to governance matters but clarified that the issues are currently under judicial consideration.

“The Hospital is aware of matters currently before the courts concerning governance issues. These matters are part of an ongoing judicial process and are therefore sub judice,” Onyambu further said.

Onyambu also clarified the official channels through which communication about the hospital is released, noting that only specific offices are authorized to issue statements on behalf of the institution.

“The Hospital further clarifies that official communication on behalf of The Nairobi Hospital is issued only through the Office of the Chairman of the Board of Management, Dr. Barcley Onyambu or the Office of the Chief Executive Officer, Felix Osano,” he concluded.
