The Nairobi Hospital has refuted claims on social media that the facility has been riddled with mismanagement and corruption.
The hospital CEO James Nyamongo in a statement on Wednesday termed the allegations as false and misleading adding that they should be treated with the contempt that they deserve.
The published article alleged that the hospital has been marred with corruption and bribes which threatens to sink the operations of the facility.
The article further alleged the hospital had been taken over by 'cartels' who were taking bribes, leaving employees demoralised.
But in a rejoinder, Nyamongo assured the hospital's stakeholders both within and outside the country that the institution was doing well, and that there was no course for alarm.
The CEO noted that the facility has robust governance structures that guide its operations and processes at all times.
"Indeed, our main hospital, departments and outpatient centres are running smoothly as we offer patients the best care using advanced technology in an atmosphere of trust, safety and comfort," Nyamongo said.
The article further alleged that there was a lack of transparency in the tendering process at the facility, claims Nyamongo has refuted.
Nyamongo assured that a comprehensive report concerning the procurement process of the Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) and Enterprise Resource Planning System(ERP) is available and will soon be shared with the relevant stakeholders.
"As the Board of Management, we appreciate the support we continue to receive from you as our cherished members of staff," the CEO said.
"Indeed, the diligence and determination that you have tirelessly exhibited in transforming TNH into a leading private healthcare facility in East and Central Africa is impressive."
He called on all the stakeholders to work together to make the institution a world-class multi-speciality hospital and deliver exceptional quality services to patients while at the same time achieving sustainable growth.
In October last year, the hospital was awarded for its programme that supplies a blood cancer drug to poor patients for free.
At least 150 cancer patients are getting the drug, known as Glivec or Imatinib, every week for free at the hospital.
It is used to treat certain types of leukaemia and tumours that grow in the walls of the digestive system.
Hospital CEO James Nyamongo said they have supported about 2,000 patients since 2004.
