Since its establishment in 1941 as a cottage hospital to cater for the health needs of native Africans and Asians living around the urban centre, Thika Level 5 Hospital has served millions of patients in Kiambu and other surrounding counties including Nairobi, Kirinuaga, Machakos and Murang'a.
However, the hundreds of patients seeking medical services at the facility are now up in arms with the hospital management over its sorry state of affairs despite being the county's largest and most visited facility.
Trouble began late last year when the hospital fell short of medical essentials. This was after suppliers declined to deliver them due to unpaid pending bills.
