Ensuring that all health facility owners share change of location and ownership details with the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) is crucial for maintaining accountability, transparency, and the highest standards of healthcare delivery. By keeping accurate records of such changes, KMPDC can e effectively monitor the quality of services provided, and safeguard the well-being of patients. This proactive approach not only promotes trust between healthcare providers and regulatory bodies but also strengthens the integrity of the healthcare system and ultimately benefiting the public.

To change the location or ownership of a health facility in accordance with the requirements of the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC), several steps must be followed. Initially, the KMPDC requests an inspection of the current facility by the County Public Health Team (CHMT) to evaluate compliance with health and safety regulations. Subsequently, the owner or representative of the health facility fills out the KMPDC’s official application form and submits it along with the inspection report, an Environmental Compliance Report (NEMA), and precise details of the new location, including plot or land registration numbers.

Moreover, detailed ownership information is required, including the applicant’s full name, nationality, profession, contact details, and relevant identification numbers. The KMPDC then reviews all submitted documents to assess the feasibility and regulatory compliance of the proposed changes. Based on the inspection findings and overall application, the KMPDC makes a decision on whether to approve or deny the request for changing the health facility’s particulars.
