The Role of Danid Centre in Oncology and Palliative Care in Nyanza

Cancer care in the Nyanza region has long needed specialized support—and Danid Centre for Chronic Illness in Kisumu is answering that call. As the only registered palliative care facility in the entire region, we provide not just treatment but also comfort, dignity, and holistic support for patients facing cancer and other life-limiting conditions.

Located in Milimani Estate, our serene environment offers a compassionate space where patients and their families can receive quality care without the stress of traveling far. Our oncology and palliative care unit focuses on managing pain, symptoms, and emotional wellbeing. We don’t just treat diseases—we treat people with empathy and love.

Palliative care is not just about end-of-life support. At Danid, it starts at diagnosis and continues through treatment and beyond. We help patients deal with the side effects of chemotherapy, manage chronic pain, and navigate the emotional and spiritual challenges of illness. Our doctors, nurses, counselors, and chaplains work hand-in-hand to provide this 360-degree care.

Families are also part of the journey. Through support groups and one-on-one counseling, we help caregivers understand their roles, cope with grief or anxiety, and stay strong for their loved ones. Our aim is to reduce suffering and enhance the quality of life for everyone involved.

If someone in your family is facing cancer or chronic illness, you don’t have to walk alone. Call Danid Centre for Chronic Illness at +254-734838063 or +254-723121350, email us at admin@danidcentre.org, or visit www.danidcentre.org to explore how we can help.
