Welcome to AIC Kapsowar Hospital

A small mission hospital based in North West Kenya.

Background and History
Kapsowar Hospital was first established by Africa Inland Mission (A.I.M.) in 1933. In 1963, AIM handed over ownership of the hospital to the Africa Inland Church (A.I.C.), and it is currently under the supervision of the A.I.C. Central Health Council. Since the Marakwet District came into existence in 1994, Kapsowar Hospital continues to supply the majority of medical care to the people of the area with a goal to provide excellent health care to the glory of God.

Overview
The 140 bed multi-building hospital provides facilities for maternity, pediatric, medical and surgical care. The hospital compound is comprised of 12 hospital buildings and 22 staff residences.
A new nursing school was built in 2008 and accepted its first class of students in August 2008. Except for the surgeon, the current full time staff is entirely Kenyan. The number of expatriate staff varies greatly depending on the number of visitors we have and those are mostly medical students or other visiting doctors or nurses.
