Mount Kenya University has been re-accredited by the Nursing Council of Kenya to continue training nursing students.
The Institution has been offering Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree for the last 12 years and has been subject to regular reviews by the Nursing Council to confirm that the university’s facilities, including laboratories, meet the set requirements.
The review is undertaken every five years. The Registrar Nursing Council of Kenya Dr. Lister Onsongo presented the re-accreditation certificate to MKU Vice Chancellor Prof Deogratious Jaganyi.
The re-accreditation followed a review process, during which the Nursing Council of Kenya inspected the University and affiliated hospitals last year.
“MKU was granted approval to training nursing students in 2012 and the first re-accreditation was conducted in 2017, our nursing programme has produced over 1,400 qualified nurses,” he said.
