Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteer Options
The
Dental Unit at PCEA Kikuyu Hospital offers opportunities for dental
professionals to volunteer as service providers or educators. Long and
short term volunteers are welcome.
The clinic is staffed by a full time Kenyan dentist, Dr. Nelson
Malenya, who welcomes dental mission individual volunteers
and groups.
It is recommended that contact be made at least three months prior to
the planned visit. This will allow the clinic to schedule work based on
the specialties represented. The English language is well known but
translators can be provided when required. Housing may be available in
hostels at the hospital. Security is provided in the hospital compound.
If you are interested in volunteering or would like more information,
please contact Dr. Malenya at nelsonmalenya@yahoo.com.
The Clinic
The clinic is a modern facility with seven treatment rooms, a central
sterilization room, a dental laboratory, and a center air and vacuum
system. The clinic is fully equipped with the exception of three
treatment areas. The clinic provides comprehensive and preventive
dental services to the general population which includes outreach
programs to orphanages, schools, and to the remote rural population
with special emphasis on the poorest segments of society. Click on the

Dental clinic staff members have developed a poster to be used to advertise the services
of the clinic.
