About Nurse In Hand
A social enterprise transforming emergency healthcare delivery in Kenya, one life at a time.
Who We Are
A social enterprise dedicated to saving lives and serving communities
Nurse In Hand Emergency Response is a social enterprise (not-for-profit organization) established to address the critical healthcare crisis in Kenya. We are not a company seeking profits, but a mission-driven organization committed to saving lives.
We deploy qualified trauma doctors and emergency medical teams directly to high-risk highway segments, serving as immediate first responders to road traffic accidents. Beyond emergency response, we provide essential healthcare services to local communities and nearby residents through our strategically positioned centers.
Our services include emergency rescue, outpatient care, medications, and 24-hour pharmacy services for communities along the Northern Corridor and surrounding areas.
Our Mission
To provide rapid, life-saving emergency care and accessible healthcare services to underserved communities along Kenya's highways, ensuring no one dies from preventable road accidents or lack of medical access.
Our Vision
A Kenya where every road user has immediate access to professional emergency medical care, and every family can afford quality healthcare through innovative micro-insurance solutions.
