Patients with epilepsy in Homa Bay County are expected to get a sigh of relief after an organisation started a project that targets their medication.
The Kenya Association for Welfare of People with Epilepsy (KAWE) has begun the initiative for promoting the diagnosis of the disease in villages.
Through a partnership with DEVLINK and Homa Bay County Government, FAWE undertakes the project by empowering community health volunteers (CHVs) and health workers who operate in dispensaries and health centres.
The empowerment is done by training the CHVs and health workers employed in the primary health facilities.
