# How Should a Clinic or Hospital Use CCTV in Kenya?

Cover entrances, reception, corridors and the drug store. Keep cameras out of consulting and treatment rooms.

A camera that records nothing useful is the most expensive thing on your wall.

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- Entrance, reception, corridors, pharmacy store and car park.
- Never in consulting or treatment rooms.
- Restrict who can view footage.

Quick answer

A clinic or hospital benefits from cameras at the entrance and reception, in corridors and waiting areas, at the pharmacy and drug store, and in the car park. Do not put cameras in consulting rooms, treatment rooms or toilets. Health data is sensitive personal data in Kenya, so restrict who can view footage, post signs and keep recordings only as long as you need them.

Why this matters now

## Every night without proper recording is a night you cannot prove anything.

### If you wait

- A theft or a dispute becomes your word against theirs
- You hear about it hours later, if at all
- Police and insurers ask what you can show them

### What you get

- Every entrance recorded day and night
- Playback on your phone within minutes
- A visible camera changes how people behave

Is CCTV allowed in a hospital?

Yes in public and staff areas for security, with signs and access limits. Private clinical spaces are off limits; see Kenya's data protection guidance below.

Who should see the footage?

A named few: the manager and security lead. Keep a log of who exports or views recordings.
