Quick answer: A working consultation room is an examination couch at KSh 13,000, a doctor stool at KSh 12,000 and a dressing trolley at KSh 12,000, so KSh 37,000. Observation beds start at KSh 27,000 for the economy bed with mattress and rails.
Opening order for a new clinic
| Phase | Items | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Consultation room | Couch, stool, dressing trolley | KSh 37,000 |
| Observation | 2 economy beds + 2 lockers | KSh 76,000 |
| Transfer | Patient stretcher | KSh 40,000 |
Buy the observation beds later
New clinics often overbuy beds before they know their patient flow. Two beds is usually the right start. Adding beds later takes one call and one delivery.
A realistic first-year budget
Most new dispensaries we supply spend under KSh 150,000 on furniture and beds in year one: one consultation room at KSh 37,000, two observation beds with lockers at KSh 76,000, and a stretcher at KSh 40,000 once patient numbers justify it. Anything beyond that usually waits until the clinic knows its own patient flow.
Buying for cleaning, not for looks
Clinic furniture is wiped down many times a day. Wipe-clean surfaces, sealed mattress covers and castors that do not clog matter more than finish. A couch that cannot be disinfected properly is a false economy in a room seeing thirty patients a day.
