ClinPlacer was born from the chaos of clinical placement season in Kenyan nursing schools — printed letters, missed assignments, overloaded coordinators, and students starting weeks late.
Every semester, the same scene played out across Kenyan nursing schools. Coordinators spent days typing introduction letters for every student. Students queued to collect printed copies. Hospital supervisors received handwritten lists that were already outdated.
Logbooks went unsigned. Students arrived at hospitals that had no record of them. Some waited weeks to start. Others were sent to the wrong department. Coordinators spent more time on admin than on supporting students.
That frustration became ClinPlacer. We built what we wished had existed — a platform that handles every step of clinical placement management online, from student assignment to NCK-ready audit trails, so coordinators can focus on education instead of paperwork.
Then vs now
Our mission
To eliminate administrative burden from clinical placement management so that school coordinators, supervisors, and students can focus entirely on what matters — quality healthcare training.
Our vision
To become the standard for clinical rotation management across Africa — starting with Kenya, building a model that every nursing council and medical training institution can rely on.
ClinPlacer is not a generic platform adapted for Kenya. It was designed from scratch around the specific workflows, regulations, and challenges of Kenyan nursing and medical training institutions.
NCK compliance built in
Audit trails, fair rotation tracking, and inspection-ready reports aligned to Nursing Council of Kenya requirements — on every plan.
Data hosted in Kenya
Your student and placement data is stored on servers physically located in Nairobi. It never leaves the country.
Built around Kenyan hospitals
Partner facilities include KNH, county hospitals, and private facilities — the same hospitals your students rotate through.
Works on any device, any connection
Optimised for the devices and connection speeds common across Kenya — from Nairobi to county-based institutions.
The ClinPlacer dashboard — live at nursing schools across Kenya
These are not slogans. They are the reasons we built certain features and refused to build others.
Every placement change is logged with who made it, when, and why. There are no hidden actions in ClinPlacer — everything is auditable.
We design every feature by asking what makes a coordinator's, student's, or supervisor's day easier — not what looks impressive in a demo.
Student data is yours. We never sell it, share it, or use it for anything beyond running your institution's placements. Hosted in Kenya.
If a task takes more than 3 clicks, we redesign it. Coordinators are busy. The platform should work as fast as they think.
NCK compliance features are not a premium add-on. They are the foundation. Every plan includes everything needed for an inspection.
When a school onboards with ClinPlacer, our team stays involved. We handle setup, train staff, and are reachable when things come up.

Paperless rotations
How ClinPlacer grew from a single conversation into the platform Kenyan nursing schools use today.
The problem identified
A conversation among nursing school coordinators about how much time was lost every semester on placement paperwork. Everyone had the same complaints. Nobody had a solution.
First version built
ClinPlacer v1 launched with core placement assignment, hospital management, and basic reporting. First nursing school went fully paperless.
NCK compliance & audit trail
Full compliance features added after working closely with school coordinators preparing for Nursing Council inspections. Audit trail, exportable reports, and fair rotation tracking.
Zara AI launched
Zara, ClinPlacer's AI placement assistant, launched across all plans. Schools can now ask questions about their placements, get suggestions, and receive proactive alerts.
