Who we are
Danid Centre for Chronic Illness is Long-term acute and Chronic care hospital (LTACH) regulated by KMPDC and located in Kisumu, Milimani Estate. It specializes in the treatment of patients with acute on chronic medical conditions that require care on an ongoing basis but no longer require intensive care or extensive diagnostic or surgical procedures.
The facility is designed for patients with serious medical problems that require intense, special treatment for an extended period of time. Patients are typically transferred to a long- term acute care hospital from the intensive care unit of a traditional hospital because they no longer require intensive diagnostic procedures offered by a traditional facility or from surgery or Acute on Chronic illness.
While a traditional hospital provides several general medical specialties, such as emergency care, maternity care, etc., a long-term acute care hospital has the focused resources to apply very high standards to a relatively small list of ailments.
