Health workers at the Nankese Health Centre in Ghana\u2019s Eastern Region are urging the government to assist in completing an expansion of their facility.<\/p>\n

The health center, which serves 17 communities within the Suhum Municipality, faces challenges due to limited medical equipment and insufficient space to provide adequate patient care.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The community of Nankese in Ghana\u2019s Eastern Region struggles with various issues, including poor road conditions and limited access to clean water.<\/p>\n

Adding to these difficulties, the community\u2019s health services are stretched thin. The Nankese Health Centre, which serves as a critical healthcare provider for the area, is hampered by understaffing, a shortage of medical equipment, and a lack of sufficient space for patient care.<\/p>\n

\"\" These limitations not only impact the quality of care for residents but also create difficult working conditions for healthcare staff.<\/p>\n

Linda Yeboah, a nurse at the facility, highlights the need for essential medical equipment and proper housing for resident nurses.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The extension project, intended to upgrade the Nankese Health Centre, has been stalled for over a decade.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Benedicta Baidoo, the Physician Assistant in charge of the facility, emphasizes how the delay affects healthcare services.<\/p>\n

She appeals to the government and NGOs to step in and help address these critical needs.<\/p>\n
