MNTRH at the 17th Annual Scientific Conference of the Kenya Psychiatric Association (KPA

During the 17th Annual Scientific Conference of the Kenya Psychiatric Association (KPA), held from September 3 to 5, 2025, at the Boma Inn in Eldoret, Kenya, psychiatrists from Mathari National Teaching and Referral Hospital (MNTRH) experienced a profound sense of belonging and familiarity at their own exhibition booth. As Kenya's premier Level 6 mental health facility and the largest specialized psychiatric institution in the region, MNTRH showcased innovative approaches to integrated community mental health care, aligning seamlessly with the conference's overarching theme: "Community Mental Health in the 21st Century: Innovation, Integration & Impact." This participation not only highlighted MNTRH's ongoing contributions to advancing psychiatric practices but also fostered meaningful dialogues among attendees on ethical, legal, and evidence-based strategies for enhancing patient care and reducing stigma in mental health services. The booth served as a hub for collaboration, reflecting the hospital's commitment to excellence and its pivotal role in Kenya's mental health landscape.
