Healthcare & Caregiving Services Outsourcing
Kenya’s healthcare demand is outpacing the supply of trained personnel available for direct hire. Private clinics, nursing homes, hospices, and individual families across Nairobi are all competing for the same pool of nurses, caregivers, and support staff — and most don’t have the recruitment infrastructure to win that competition consistently. Bestcare Outsourcing EA solves this by supplying vetted healthcare and caregiving professionals on flexible, outsourced terms, so our clients get qualified staff without carrying the full weight of recruitment, licensing checks, and HR administration in-house.
Who We Staff
Our healthcare staffing service covers a wide range of roles, each vetted according to the qualifications the position demands:
- Registered and enrolled nurses for clinics, hospitals, and home-based care
- Caregivers and home-based carers for elderly clients, post-surgical recovery, and chronic illness support
- Nursing aides and support staff for hospitals and care facilities
- Physiotherapy assistants working alongside licensed physiotherapists
- Nutritionist and dietary support staff for institutional kitchens and care plans
- Community health workers for outreach-based programs
- Live-in and live-out caregivers for families managing elderly or disabled relatives
Every candidate is screened for relevant certification with bodies such as the Nursing Council of Kenya and the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council, alongside background checks, reference verification, and a practical skills assessment before placement.
Why Outsource Caregiving Staff
Hiring healthcare personnel directly means managing licensing renewals, shift scheduling, statutory deductions, and — inevitably — replacing staff who leave. Outsourcing through Bestcare removes that burden:
- Faster placement — we maintain a standing pool of pre-vetted candidates, so most placements are filled within days, not weeks
- Flexible engagement terms — short-term relief cover, long-term contracts, or live-in arrangements are all available
- Compliance handled — statutory deductions (NHIF, NSSF, PAYE) and contract documentation are managed on our end
- Replacement guarantee — if a placed caregiver or nurse doesn’t work out, we replace them at no extra recruitment fee within an agreed window
- Reduced liability exposure — outsourced staff are contracted through Bestcare, reducing direct employment risk for the client
This model works equally well for a nursing home in Karen needing a full night shift roster, a private clinic in Westlands covering maternity leave for two nurses, or a family in Lavington that needs a live-in caregiver for an aging parent.
