Kwadaso Assembly Commissions CHPS Compound for Nyankyerenease Community

The Kwadaso Assembly has officially opened a Community-based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) compound equipped with nurses' accommodation for the Nyankyerenease community. Municipal Chief Executive Eric Asibey praised President John Dramani Mahama and the sector minister for ensuring the District Assemblies Common Fund remains a reliable resource for development projects. He assured the upgrade and completion of the Apatrapa Health Centre, which will be fortified with a fence wall and pavement.

The Municipal Health Director, Ms. Grace Billi Kampitib, lauded the MCE for the initiative that enhances healthcare delivery by bringing services closer to community members and households. This approach deviates from traditional hospital-centric care, ensuring patients with communicable diseases or unable to visit clinics receive adequate attention.

Nana Yaa Adutwumwaah II, the Queen Mother of Nyankyerenease, expressed gratitude for the Assembly's commitment to providing healthcare closer to residents. However, she lamented the community's limited development, particularly the need for improved roads, and urged the NDC government to sustain its efforts for equitable distribution of national resources.

Nana Adu-Gyamfi Kumanini I, the Nkosuohene of Nyankyerenease, requested the MCE and Municipal Health Director to bolster the free health insurance scheme to facilitate healthcare access for the needy and disadvantaged in the community.
