The Atwima Mponua Health Department is seeking the help of the Ghana Health Service in various ways. This was made public at the annual meeting on the Health Exam, where industry stakeholders gathered at the District Assembly Assembly Hall for discuss what happened during the year of examination; so 2018.

Kojo Kyei-Fram, director of health services, lamented the virtual lack of logic that affected his district. The district, which has more than 142,000 inhabitants and 356 communities, can only benefit from a hospital, 8 health centers, 5 health centers, 29 midwives, 2 doctors and 24 nurses registered and a pharmacist.

What he said is intentionally insufficient. "This district is home to Ghana's rich bauxite, but it does not have a car or pick to monitor, nor an ambulance to provide emergency health care to its people," he said. .

According to Kyei, these developments are pushing their customers to visit other border regions because of the proximity. However, Mr. Kyei acknowledged the acts of the district badembly, but called for urgent attention to redevelop the district into midwifery staff, nurses and medical badistants to increase the hand-of 39, works in communities.

The district director general, the Hon. William Darko, for his part, said his team was doing more by building more health centers and health centers while retooling existing ones to meet the health needs of its people.

He mentioned projects such as the Achiase Health Center, the Diabetes Treatment Complex for the Treatment of Diabetes, the Anansu and Anwiafutu CPS, which are about to be completed. and that will soon be operational.

The leaders of the various health centers during their interventions deplored the deplorable installations in which they work badly in the eyes and want that their authorities come to their aid. They said the poor road networks connecting communities, inadequate staff, portable water distribution systems were the scourge of their problems and demotivated their services.

Today's President, Reverend Simon Mensah, urged stakeholders, philanthropists and other supporters to come to the aid of the Health Branch to provide the best service to the people.

Present at the meeting were leaders, opinion leaders, politicians, government officials, health workers, journalists and the general public.
