The inclusion QualityRights in the curriculum of medical students is important in escalating the conversation on human rights and mental health @FrankKarimi5 @citiesRISE @MOHmentalhealth @grace_sybille @Rixpoet @MSAKE_Kenya
Replying to @Kmtc_official
@Kmtc_official has plans underway to ensure that medical students on campus are educated on the importance of human rights in the medical field. The enhancement of these rights is important to promote patient's recovery from mental illnesses.
