Together we can give comfort in body and soul in rural western Kenya
Rehema 3-Day "In-Reach" Free Medical Camp at Rehema
From November 2 to 4, 2026, Always Mercy’s very own Board Member and Infectious Disease Doctor, Dr. Anita Scribner, took six volunteers to Rehema Hospice and Clinic’s “In Reach Programme” Medical Camp at Rehema in rural western Kenya. This camp featured breast and cervical cancer screening, maternal health, and palliative care services. The In Reach Programme was a great success, helping women who otherwise would not be able to afford medical services.

1.5 million people suffer pain needlessly due to lack of medical care in Kenya.
Only 10% ever receive the pain relief they need.
Palliative Care can change that!
Palliative care improves quality of life for patients and families facing problems associated with chronic or life-threatening illnesses. Palliative care benefits children or adults, caring for the whole person as God has created us: body, mind and soul. This specialized care can be provided in the home as well.
Many suffer in silence
72% of Kenyans live in the rural areas
Many of them live on less than $2 per day. That means healthcare is out of reach for the rural poor.
Often, sufferers wait too long to receive assessment and medical treatment and become debilitated by disease or, when finally diagnosed, often have terminal illness, such as stage 4 cancer or AIDS. Breast and cervical cancers are high among rural women. Men suffer from TB, prostate and other cancers, or often have undiagnosed HIV, spreading disease to their spouses or partners. Rehema now offers outpatient clinic services, home based palliative and hospice care, and it has a 48-bed inpatient hospital. We are striving to care for those who suffer needlessly in the local community and beyond.
