Positive Voice Of Kenya

  Beyond the Outbreak: Building Long-Term Strength from Short-Term Crisis Crises are often seen as disruptions—temporary derailments that need short-term fixes. But for visionary healthcare leaders, crises are also opportunities to build stronger systems , rethink outdated models, and introduce lasting change. In Kenya, few embody this philosophy more clearly than Jayesh Saini , whose post-pandemic innovations have reshaped how private healthcare institutions recover, rebuild, and future-proof their operations. From the height of COVID-19 to localized emergencies in peri-urban areas, Saini’s network of healthcare institutions—including Lifecare Hospitals , Bliss Healthcare , Fertility Point Kenya , and others—has transformed each moment of stress into a catalyst for smarter, more resilient systems. The Problem: Recovery Without Reflection In many health systems, the end of a crisis is followed by a return to the status quo. Temporary wards are dismantled, emergency budgets are exha...

  Exporting the Model: What Other African Nations Can Learn from Kenya Across the African continent, the pursuit of universal health coverage remains a defining challenge—and an opportunity. As countries work to deliver affordable, quality healthcare to their populations, many are asking: What does a scalable, sustainable model actually look like?

A mix of digital adoption, private-public collaboration, infrastructure expansion, and strong leadership has created a system worth emulating. At the center of this evolution stands Jayesh Saini , a healthcare entrepreneur whose patient-first, tech-enabled, and ethics-driven model is gaining regional attention. Why Kenya’s Healthcare Approach Stands Out Kenya’s healthcare landscape has long been a microcosm of continental challenges: rural-urban disparities, workforce shortages, chroni...

  Long-Term Value, Not Just Cost: Why Intentional Infrastructure Wins in Healthcare In the race to close healthcare access gaps across Africa, speed and cost-efficiency often dominate decision-making. But as the region builds more hospitals than ever before, a deeper question is surfacing: what makes health infrastructure truly sustainable? In Kenya, one private healthcare network has quietly been building an answer. Lifecare Hospitals , now present in six counties, is challenging the conventional notion that hospital projects should be measured only by budget and square footage. Instead, the group is proving that long-term healthcare value is a function of service relevance, digital backbone, energy resilience, and maintenance planning —not just initial cost. At the center of this infrastructure philosophy is a distinctive leadership model— one defined by long-view thinking, strategic patience, and systems-first execution. And it’s one that traces back to the guiding principles ...
