GRNMA Youth Boot Camp: Nurses Deserve Financial Stability and Decent Livelihoods- Jefferson Asare Danquah

byMavis FanteviNovember 9, 20260 The Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association, Jefferson Asare Danquah has called for improved working conditions and financial stability for nurses and midwives, stressing that healthcare professionals deserve decent livelihoods for the critical services they provide.

Speaking at the Greater Accra Regional GRNMA Youth Boot Camp on Monday, November 9,2026, he said although nursing and midwifery are professions driven by passion and a commitment to service, practitioners must not be expected to sacrifice their financial well-being in the name of their calling.

He argued that Ghana cannot achieve a healthy population while neglecting the welfare of the professionals responsible for delivering healthcare.

According to him, efforts to improve healthcare delivery must go beyond calls for dedication and compassion to include better remuneration, improved working conditions and adequate support for nurses and midwives.

He also urged young nurses and midwives to take an active interest in the development of their profession and strengthen their professional association.

Mr Asare Danquah challenged participants to leave the boot camp with a commitment to make meaningful contributions rather than simply celebrating certificates, photographs and new friendships.

He further stressed the importance of professional unity, urging nurses and midwives to stand together and speak with one voice in advocating for their welfare and the advancement of the profession.
