Courses Offered At KMTC Homa Bay Campus And Fee Structure

This article highlights courses offered at KMTC Homa Bay Campus and their fee structure. Established in 1979, KMTC Homa Bay Campus initially focused on training Enrolled Community Health Nurses. In 1998, the campus upgraded the program to Diploma in Community Health Nursing.

Consequently, the pre-service training for enrolled nurses was phased out in 2002, making room for the introduction of other diploma-level programs across four different departments: Nursing, Clinical Medicine, Physiotherapy, and Nutrition.
