About Us

A College Rooted in Competence, Compassion and Community

Life Link College of Health Sciences trains Kenya's next generation of nurses, clinicians and health scientists.

Our Story

History

Life Link College was established to respond to a persistent shortage of skilled mid-level health workers across Kenyan counties. What began as a small caregiving training centre has grown into a full college of health sciences with dedicated skills laboratories, a training pharmacy and a network of hospital partners.

Today the college runs diploma and certificate programmes across eight departments, with thousands of alumni serving in public hospitals, mission facilities, private clinics and community health programmes.

Principal's Message

Healthcare is a calling before it is a career. At Life Link we teach our students to be technically excellent and deeply humane — because the patient in front of you deserves both. Our lecturers are practising professionals, our laboratories mirror real facilities, and our clinical partners give every learner supervised, hands-on experience long before graduation.

If you are ready to serve, we are ready to train you. Welcome to Life Link.
