R Gomda, who spoke on behalf of Ing. Kow Abaka Quansah, Board<br \/>\nChairman of the company said \u201c\u2026 the Polyclinic is unable to provide Dental<br \/>\nServices due to lack of structure and equipment. All dental related cases are<br \/>\ntherefore referred to healthcare facilities elsewhere for management. This is<br \/>\nobviously a big gap in the Polyclinic\u2019s service delivery and also affects<br \/>\npatients who have to go through lots of hustle and bustle to access care at the<br \/>\nreferred facilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The<br \/>\nTLOC undertook civil works and modification of two rooms, a waiting area and<br \/>\nwalkway of the Polyclinic to get a fully furnished and air-conditioned Doctor\u2019s<br \/>\nConsulting Room, Treatment Room, Nurse\u2019s Office and an Out Patients Department.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0All the donated items had duly been<br \/>\nauthenticated by the Regional Clinical Engineering Unit of the Ministry of<br \/>\nHealth as good and fit for the purpose, A.R. Gomda said. <\/p>\n<p>On his<br \/>\npart, the Managing Director (MD) of TLOC, Mr. Amos Donkoh, mentioned health,<br \/>\neducation and security as the thematic areas of the Company\u2019s Corporate Social<br \/>\nResponsibility to the community. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have made several CSR in the past including an ambulance to the Tema Polyclinic with repair and insurance borne by the company for three years, Ventilator for the Tema General Hospital, surgical equipment for the ENT Department of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, another ambulance for Tema General Hospital, books, furniture, computers and water dispensing machines for the Tema Library, a fully furnished Police Post near Tema Timber Market for the Tema Regional police Command, among others,\u201d he stated,<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/lube-donation-2-1024x582.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-251305\"  \/><figcaption><strong>A group photograph of the hospital staff and the TLOC management with the<br \/>the Board Chairman (middle)<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>He appealed<br \/>\nto other corporate institutions to support public institutions to achieve their<br \/>\nobjectives.<\/p>\n<p>According<br \/>\nto him, \u201calthough you don\u2019t see our products directly, fuel filling stations<br \/>\nlike Shell, Total, GOIL, etc. blend their lubricants from our end, so we<br \/>\nencourage you to buy from these filling stations. As you buy from them, you are<br \/>\ngiving us money to assist the community more.\u2019\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>Appreciating<br \/>\nthe gesture, the Director of the Polyclinic, Dr. Joseph Kojo Donkor, said \u201cI\u2019ve<br \/>\nhad instances when people die on the way when they have been referred to the Tema<br \/>\nGeneral Hospital because of complications that arise from oral care issues.<br \/>\nTherefore, we\u2019ll put the facility into good use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He<br \/>\nhowever, mentioned other health challenges of the Polyclinic that need urgent<br \/>\nattention, saying that \u201cCurrently, the facility needs a surgical theatre, an<br \/>\nambulance, as well as re-roofing of the OPD Block to stop leakages when it rained.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>The Metropolitan Chief Executive (MCE), Mr. Felix Mensah Nii Annan-La, was full of praise for the TLOC for saving dental patients from the inconveniences of traveling long distances to seek dental care outside the Polyclinic\u2019s jurisdiction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From Vincent Kubi, Manhean <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A.R.
