Healthcare remains one of my top priorities, and I am delighted to support the Nsawam Government Hospital with a donation of GH¢208,745 from my Common Fund allocation to facilitate the expansion of the hospital's Out-Patient Department (OPD), including improvements to antenatal, laboratory, and related healthcare services. The cheque was presented on my behalf by former Municipal Chief Executive, Hon. Emmanuel Owusu Arthur, following a request from the hospital's management to help address the growing pressure on the facility.
The Nsawam Government Hospital continues to play a critical role in healthcare delivery, recording over 174,000 OPD visits, 5,000 deliveries, and approximately 15,000 admissions annually. These figures clearly demonstrate the urgent need for expanded infrastructure to meet the growing healthcare demands of residents within Nsawam-Adoagyiri and surrounding communities. I am encouraged by the assurance from hospital management that these funds will be used prudently to improve patient care, reduce congestion, and create a more conducive environment for both patients and health workers.
My commitment to improving healthcare in the constituency remains unwavering. Beyond this donation, work is progressing steadily on the ultra-modern maternity ward project currently under construction at the hospital, which will provide additional neonatal and theatre facilities upon completion. I thank the hospital administration for their partnership and kind words of appreciation, and I assure the people of Nsawam-Adoagyiri that I will continue to support initiatives that improve access to quality healthcare and enhance the well-being of our communities.
