You will see if they can sustain it. It is a mere propaganda. Soon you will see it will catch up with them. It is not beyond the NPP to do such propaganda. Why would you organize a ceremony over the tax payer\u2019s money? It\u2019s needless, wasteful and an extravagant exercise\u2026\u201d he said on Accra based Neat FM.<\/p>\n<p>Alhaji A. B. A. Fuseini added that the NPP party cutting down enrollment and abolishing bonding of nurses after completion of their training in government funded health institutions will cause chaos in the country.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that, the move will affect the nurse-to-patient ration hence limiting the required manpower in the Ghanaian Health Sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have cut down on the enrollment. And our patient to nurse ratio is down. We must work hard to meet the SDG, 1 nurse to about 12 patients. But we can\u2019t get there if the quantity or manpower is low\u2026\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe employed about 16000 nurses before we left power. Taking the nurses out of the bond isn\u2019t good. What is the basis of helping them through training and they come out unemployed. The government is running away from the duty of employing nurses. The ration will come down. It is a bad policy and it will not improve the health sector\u2026\u201d he maintained.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Minority Spokesperson for Communications, Alhaji Inisah Fuseini is predicting doom for restoration of the Nursing Training allowance by the Akufo-Addo government.
