The Maternal and Child Health (MCH) department is one of the largest departments at KCN and has existed for over 35 years initially not as a department but as a midwifery program headed by a coordinator of midwifery. After 4 years a department of maternal and child health was established and was offering maternal child health courses to diploma students and midwifery to nurses who had completed their nursing program.

The Maternal and Child Health department was established in 1979.
