Description
“Male ward, dresser Joshua & nurse Tryphora.” Interior view of the male ward with patients in bed and hospital staff standing. The new block consisted of two wards, an operating theatre, and dispensary, which were built in 1939 next to the original wards. ❧ The image is from the collection of Dr Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) showing the period from 1928-1947 at the Chogoria mission which was established near Mt Kenya, in 1922, and run by Dr Irvine.
