After my speech at the SOS breakfast event, I proceeded to the SOS headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky to order a 40-foot-shipping-container of wide-ranging medical equipment needed to operationalize the new hospital project being constructed by Citi FM in my beloved Mepe.
The heavily subsidized medical equipment include anaesthesia machines, x-ray machines, ventilators, patient monitors, defibrillators, electronic blood pressure apparatus, nebulizer machines, autoclaves, suction machines, radiant warmers, incubators, obstetric delivery sets, electronic wheelchairs, adjustable delivery beds, diagnostic sets, episiotomy sets, ultrasound machines, surgical instruments etc.
I am thankful to my Senior Public Health Advisor, Dr. Momodou Cham and North Tongu District Health Director, Mr. Michael Zigah for the invaluable professional guidance in helping me select the medical equipment required.
The full complement of medical equipment as ordered will be shipped to Ghana in the next few days.
Citi FM and their partners/listeners did a great job by raising funds during the floods to construct a hospital building and nursing bungalows in Mepe — I am determined to show appreciation to you all by ensuring that I secure and install the much needed medical equipment to not only complete the laudable Citi FM initiative but also maximize the health benefits.
I am eternally grateful to SOS and their donors for this remarkable partnership with my office.
