| 4 |  Angalia CHPs kit. 😃 - Kazi kweli kweli
Sasa hivi kaa CHP bila kuchapa kazi hautoboi na eCHIS.
Gari ni baiskeli. - Some CHUs own motorbikes
Na sasa kuna CHAs Kit, Laikipia CHS 2022. - Kaa wewe si mamba hapa hautoboi
Na hata Nurses ndio huoverwork. - The hospital circulatory system
Some doctors workload huwalemea pia. - That historically RCOs were a stop gap measure | 68 |

| 11 |  +1Senate will be back from recess on this coming Tuesday.
And that means one thing. - The order paper is out https://www.parliament.go.ke/sites/default/files/2026-09/Order%20Paper%20-%20Tuesday%2008.09.2026.pdf
And now the key update is CHPs Bill 2022 is still up for 100% deletion.
After failing to get a no objection earlier it seems CHPs couldn't convince Senators enough.
PHCA 2023 killed the CHS Bill. - It is now clear it buried CHPs Bill too
Only the President can make Senate change their stand in a big shift.
Na CHPs Bill seems gone for good because with Raila gone the CHPs Bill MP was a Raila MP and vindu vichenjanga.
Will the Senators surprise us?
Now we wait to see development of Career Pathway Guidelines for CHPs, development of Selection and Replacement Guidelines for CHPs and development of Motivation and Remuneration Framework for CHPs because that will most likely be the next thing to trigger a future CHPs regulatory bill.
A CHA/Os regulatory bill could be coming in 2028 too. | 93 |
| 12 |  📢 Join the CHPs Assembly, Kenya!
Join Mary Muthoni, PS, State Department for Public Health, for a candid conversation with CHPs on the theme: “Protecting Those Who Serve: SHA Cover for Every CHP”
🗣️The discussion will focus on the importance of ensuring that every CHP has access to social health protection through the SHA, recognizing their vital contribution to healthier and more resilient communities.

| 13 | Responding to OJ,
You shouldn't go home after work. - Hiyo wachia who belong to the kitchen
Real men hupitia bar. - Business deals are made there
Clinicians hupitia locum. - Msee ako kazini day, night anaingia locum
For CHOs or PHOs for that extra cash you can only lecture.
Ama uuze nguo or ufungue cafe or cyber ama uingie matatu industry.
Unaweza jenga rentals too.
Nimekupea ideas. | 87 |
| 14 | KHPOA only provides standards the future proper CHAs regulator can ride on to regulate CHAs. - A bridge toward standardisation of CHAs training and practice
KHPOA has done that well by working with SOCHE + CHESOA and DCH.
