Integrated Management of Childhood Illnesses, IMCI

With support from the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI), Keprecon supported the Ministry of Health to strengthen the capacity of Health Care Workers (HCWs) in public and private health facilities to effectively manage cases of childhood pneumonia and diarrhea using the Integrated Management of Childhood Illnesses (IMCI) model.

The goal of the project was to contribute to the reduction of under-5 mortality rate from 84/1000 to 33/1000 through improvement of diarrhea and pneumonia case management. The project was undertaken in Nairobi and Coast region counties between 2013 and 2015.

The Kenya Paediatric Research Consortium (Keprecon) is a Non-Governmental Organization set up to promote Paediatric Research, Care, Training, Mentorship and Advocacy for better health of children in urban and rural communities.
