The health sector is included in the coordinated planning and resourcing across the continuum of dementia care. It involves the Food and Health Bureau (FHB), Hospital Authority (HA), and Department of Health (DH) to provide public health services to people with dementia.

The Ministry of Health is involved in coordinating care for all health issues. Its mission is “to build a progressive, responsive, and sustainable health care system for accelerated attainment of the highest standard of health to all Kenyans” (Ministry of Health, 2019). Dementia care activities are included within the health sector.
