In Kenya, many individuals with chronic kidney disease are unable to attend essential dialysis sessions due to a lack of affordable and reliable transportation. This logistical barrier leaves patients without the life-sustaining treatment they require, often leading to serious health complications and, in severe cases, life-threatening outcomes. The burden of consistent dialysis treatment is made even heavier by the additional costs and logistical challenges faced by individuals in remote or underserved areas, who struggle to reach healthcare facilities regularly.
The Afya Plexus & Wellness Foundation is committed to addressing this critical gap. Recognizing that access to treatment must be comprehensive, we aim to reduce these barriers by working to provide safe and affordable transport options for patients.
Our approach includes community-driven solutions that prioritize patient needs, aiming to ensure that lifesaving treatments like dialysis are accessible to everyone, regardless of location or financial status. By bridging these gaps in healthcare access, we seek to empower patients to achieve better health outcomes and improve their quality of life.
