https://nation.africa/kenya/counties/bomet/longisa-hospital-death-bomet… The Bomet County government has, in response to public outrage over the death of a three-year-old girl over alleged negligence, made significant administrative changes at Longisa County Hospital.
Ruth Chepng'eno, who had been stung by bees, died on arrival at Tenwek Hospital where she had been rushed after reportedly receiving no medical attention for over five hours at Longisa Hospital.
In the changes revealed on Tuesday, Dr Ronald Kibet has been appointed as the hospital’s Medical Superintendent replacing Dr Andrew Cheruiyot who has been moved to be in charge of the newly created position of Special Clinics.
Dr Bernard Sowek, a former Chief Officer for Health who served as the Monitoring and Evaluation focal person in the department, replaces Dr Kibet as the County Director for Health.
Mr Julius Magut has been appointed in charge of Clinical Officers, replacing Mr Paul Sigey who takes over as the Clinical Officers’ Internship Coordinator/OPD.
