Busia County has made a significant stride towards ensuring inclusive healthcare for its Deaf community with the launch of the Digital Access Program.

The initiative, led by Deputy Governor Hon. Arthur Papa Odera, Chief Officer Public Health Dr. Susan Outa, and Director Health in Charge of Medical Services Dr. Janerose Ambuchi, is set to revolutionize patient care through the power of technology.

Supported by KICTANet and the British High Commission in Kenya, the initiative aims to train 115 healthcare officers, Deaf individuals, and sign language interpreters on utilizing digital tools, including the assistALL platform, which will offer free virtual sign language interpretation services at eight sub-county hospitals and the referral hospital.

The assistALL app is owned and operated by Signs Media Kenya Limited and provides comprehensive sign language interpretation services.

The app offers real-time video interpretation sessions with qualified sign language interpreters who can assist users.
