Nakuru Level Five Hospital, one of South Rift region’s largest referral health facilities, is reeling from a shortage of medics after at least 60 of them left to pursue post-graduate studies.

Nakuru County health authorities on Tuesday said the exit of the big number to pursue master’s degrees has strained the hospital which serves Nakuru, Bomet, Baringo, Narok, Kericho, Samburu, Laikipia and Nyandarua counties.
