The healthcare industry is facing a growing shortage of skilled professionals. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there will be a projected shortfall of 18 million health workers by 2030, primarily in low- and middle-income countries. In Kenya and other African nations, the gap is exacerbated by limited access to quality education and training programs for aspiring healthcare professionals. This shortage not only affects healthcare delivery but also impacts the overall health and well-being of communities.
