The Point of View<\/em><\/strong> with Bernard Avle, Prof. Beyuo blamed the government\u2019s poor health sector management and inadequate remuneration, which he says are driving healthcare professionals to seek opportunities abroad.<\/p>\nProf. Beyuo noted that the brain drain among healthcare workers has worsened under the current government, as many professionals have lost confidence in Ghana\u2019s economic future.<\/p>\n
He expressed optimism that a change in government in the 2024 elections could restore hope and retain talent within the country.<\/p>\n
He further assured that the NDC is committed to introducing policies that will strengthen the economy and provide sufficient incentives for doctors and nurses to remain and work in Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u201cBrain drain has become worse under this government and has taken a different dimension. And our government in waiting [NDC] is mindful of this because if you check, Brian Drain earlier was in pursuit of higher academic qualifications, and people wanted to go and specialise.<\/p>\n
\u201cCurrently, the people exiting this country as health workers, are the most experienced specialists, consultants with higher levels, and very qualified staff. The reason is this, people have lost hope in this country.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a case of hopelessness and despondency, I\u2019m telling you that a change in government alone will restore some confidence in people who will want to stay. A change in government from NPP to NDC alone will restore some confidence in our economy and will lead to people wanting to stay.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur government intend to introduce an ethical migration policy where people who will leave for these countries will have a planning system with our partner countries and the World Health Organisation and the country will be compensated for these people leaving.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe also have a motivation package for our nurses and doctors. We\u2019re promising equitable distribution of health workers across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n
