[Denish Ochieng/Standard]The Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital (JOOTRH) is a towering giant. A number of patients awaiting collection are subjected to sleeping outside the hospital wards, some along the corridors. Dr Okoth, who is barely a year old at the hospital promises to give the hospital a new lease of life. “The surgical ward has not been expanded over the years, and this undermines the services we offer,” says Dr Okoth. “Congestion at the referral hospital is expected because the sick must be attended to,” says Dr Otieno.
