The promulgation of the constitution of Kenya by H.E. President Mwai Kibaki, CGH, MP, on 27th August, 2010 was a major milestone towards the realisation of the highest attainable standard of health for every Kenyan.

The Ministries of Health in actualising the implementation of the Constitution initiated processes seeking to consolidate gains made in respect to provision of service delivery; leverage existing decentralized structures in health; and re-positioning to fulfil public expectations in light of the constitution.
