Health Minister, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, has charged the newly inaugurated Governing Boards of the Ghana Health Service (GHS) and the Ho Teaching Hospital to prioritize patient care by ensuring that all patients are treated with empathy, dignity, and professionalism.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony on Monday, June 16, the Minister emphasized the urgent need to enhance the quality of patient care across the country.
He noted that during his visits to health facilities and from reports received, it has become clear that many patients continue to suffer from poor treatment and a lack of professionalism—factors that contribute to the country’s broader healthcare challenges. “Ghanaian patients deserve to be treated with empathy, dignity, and respect.
