Turning Experience into Education: The Birth of BHBMC

We have taken our years of knowledge and experience in behavioral healthcare and transformed it into an education and training program designed to empower the next generation of caregivers and professionals. After successfully running a behavioral health residential facility for five years, we recognized a growing need—not just for quality care, but for skilled, compassionate professionals who can make a lasting impact in the field.

This realization led us to establish BHBMC, where we provide comprehensive training for healthcare entrepreneurs, parents, caregivers, case managers, social workers, therapists, and aspiring behavioral health professionals. Our goal is to equip them with the tools, skills, and understanding necessary to elevate the standard of care and create meaningful change in the lives of those they serve.

Through this transformation, we hope to inspire a new generation of confident, knowledgeable, and compassionate professionals who don’t just work in behavioral health but lead with heart, purpose, and expertise. At BHBMC, we are not just educating—we are shaping the future of behavioral healthcare, one dedicated individual at a time.

At Sananga Care Homes, our mission has evolved to educate, empower, and inspire the next generation of behavioral healthcare professionals. By transforming our years of hands-on experience into a comprehensive education and training program, we equip caregivers, therapists, and advocates with the knowledge, skills, and compassion needed to make a lasting impact.

We are committed to fostering growth, confidence, and excellence, ensuring that every individual we train is prepared to provide high-quality, person-centered care. Through education, mentorship, and a strong sense of community, we strive to create a future where behavioral healthcare is driven by expertise, empathy, and innovation.

Meet the Founder..

 

Hey there, I'm Nkatha! I whipped up Sananga Care Homes just for awesome folks like you. Imagine a place that's all about good vibes, fun times, and teamwork – a spot where folks like us get a fresh shot at life!

I'm straight outta Kenya, and I've hustled in healthcare for over 15 years, from running HIV/AIDS programs in impoverished communities to taking on the bustling streets of Manhattan with big-shot pharmaceutical companies.

Sananga is my playground, and even though the stress levels can get sky-high (hello, caregiver life!), catch me behind my computer- fearlessly advocating for you, rocking fun group sessions with the crew, busting out a move to Alexa, getting my hands dirty in our backyard garden, or whipping up some turmeric-infused soap bars! Life here is a blast, and I'm thrilled to have you on board! 🌟 #SanangaStrong #Sanangacares
