Empowering healing: Njogu Maina and eKare unite to advance wound care in Kenya
In Kenya, a country known for its strong community spirit, a remarkable story unfolds. It's about a partnership that's making a significant difference in healthcare, particularly in wound care. This effort is part of the eKare Cares initiative, which brings together Kevlin Njogu Maina, a dedicated registered nurse, and eKare, an innovative digital wound care company.
Kelvin Njogu Maina: Making a difference in rural Kenya
Njogu is not your typical healthcare worker. His commitment to providing wound care stretches beyond the confines of his job.
Travelling hundreds of kilometres throughout rural Kenya, he delivers essential medical services to those in need at no cost to the patients. Njogu's work is fuelled by a passion to offer healing and hope to patients who might otherwise be neglected.
His search for better ways to treat wounds led him to eKare's series on ‘artificial intelligence (AI) in wound care.’ Recognising the potential to improve his care delivery, Njogu reached out to eKare and initiated a collaborative relationship.
Collaborating for greater impact
Upon learning about Njogu's efforts, eKare decided to support him financially and provide access to the company's AI technology. This support has enabled Njogu to extend his reach and ensure that those most in need receive proper care and supplies.
This partnership is built on a shared commitment to enhance patient care through technology, patient education, and direct action. Together, Njogu and eKare are tackling the challenges of wound care in rural Kenya, demonstrating the significant impact of combining advanced technology with compassionate care.
Njogu's Work: a beacon of hope
Njogu's relentless dedication is a testament to his character. With limited resources but boundless knowledge and compassion, he has become a lifeline for many, providing not just medical care but also a sense of dignity to his patients.

The eKare Cares campaign invites you to support Njogu's inspiring work. His story highlights the importance of dedication, the role of technology in healthcare, and the powerful impact of compassion.
