HETARK is a Kenyan non-governmental organization. Since 2008, we have collaborated with governments, healthcare professionals, and development partners to enhance the delivery of healthcare in Africa.
Our clients turn to us because we take the time to listen. We work closely with stakeholders from national ministries to frontline workers to understand how systems function in practice. By analyzing business processes together, we identify what needs to change and where the opportunities lie
We engage health professionals, regulators, policymakers, and managers to gather insights on workflows, systems, and policy environments. This process ensures our understanding is rooted in operational realities and institutional needs.
We conduct detailed analyses of existing digital infrastructure, human resources, data systems, and governance structures. This helps identify gaps, assess interoperability, and define feasible areas for intervention, especially in resource-constrained environments.
Solutions are not imposed, they are co-created. We work directly with end users and institutional stakeholders to design data tools, training programs, and digital platforms that align with national standards, user capacity, and implementation contexts.
We support deployment through structured rollout plans, capacity building, and hands-on mentoring. Our team remains involved to ensure tools are adopted, data is used effectively, and systems are adjusted based on real-time feedback and performance data.
Our footprint extends across Kenya, Zambia, and 16 countries in the African Regional Collaborative Project. We’ve led digital transformation in health regulation, built capacity in data use and policy reform, and ensured systems sustainability through local ownership and governance.

Our services are built to strengthen the systems that health professionals rely on every day. Our clients turn to us for hands-on technical assistance that balances local context with global standards.
In our ongoing partnership with Palladium and Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology to implement the Kenya Health Management Information System (KeHMIS) project, HETARK is supporting the deployment of Taifa Care powered by KenyaEMR in health facilities across Kenya.
You can have all the miracle cures you want, but without an adequate health workforce to put those into place and to provide those interventions, you will not have an impact on the morbidity and mortality of diseases in the population.
The kind of reports that are being generated from the system are training trends. This information helps us forecast what is required in the future — and the resources required and to inform the Ministry of Health on supply of nurses and midwives in Kenya.
Even if someone has come in as just an ordinary nurse, we can easily know that they have already done some other forms of training. We can deploy them in the right place, where their additional skills will be of most use.
The database became critical for purposes of recruitment and training institutions. It showed us that the numbers we were producing were not adequate. That evidence helped expand nursing training facilities so that we could have enough skilled personnel.
