Strengthening lung health services starts with empowering healthcare workers and bringing quality care closer to communities
Early detection, timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to improving TB and lung health outcomes
From hospital wards to community referrals, every missed TB case matters.
In Bungoma, Dr. Ahmeddin Omar & his team are turning facility findings into action, strengthening early detection, improving data quality and supporting healthcare workers to deliver better TB care.
#EndTB
Behind every TB statistic is a life that matters.
The Program, county teams & partners are in Bungoma, Kiambu, Laikipia, West Pokot and Kirinyaga counties, mentoring healthcare workers, assessing TB services and addressing gaps to ensure no one is left behind.

Near Point-of-Care molecular testing is bringing rapid TB diagnosis closer to communities and patients. Decentralising molecular testing to health facilities nearer to where people seek care helps reduce diagnostic delays youtube.com/watch?v=CxBLnS_h…
TB care is evolving into integrated lung health care.
At the #KenyaHealthSummit2026, spirometers & peak flow meters highlight how the TB platform can also support detection & management of asthma, COPD & post-TB lung disease. One patient. One respiratory journey. Better care.
Taking diagnosis closer to the people. AI-enabled Mini-Xray and Near Point-of-Care molecular testing are helping shorten the journey from TB symptoms to diagnosis and treatment, especially for communities with limited access to diagnostic services.
