The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP) for Dome-Kwabenya Constituency, Sarah Adwoa Safo, has passionately appealed to Corporate Ghana and individuals to support the Abokobi Health Center to upgrade into a Polyclinic.

The facility, she noted, is in dire need of assistance in the areas of infrastructure and health devices and tools to expand its scope of work or the services it renders to the general public.

She said the rate at which the population in the communities around the Abokobi Health Center keeps increasing was overwhelming, stressing that while the government prioritizes the face-lifting of the health facility in its development agenda, support from Corporate Ghana would be welcoming in fast-tracking the upgrading process.

Hon. Adwoa Safo made this observation in Accra on Thursday, December 14, 2023, when she donated twenty-two (22) medical equipment worth GHS200,000.00 to the Ga East Municipal Health Directorate.

The gesture was to help resource the Abokobi Health Centre and other health facilities in the Ga East Municipal to enhance healthcare delivery to the municipality.

Among the medical equipment were Baby Weighing Scales, Suction Machines, Examination Lamps, Stretches, Isoflurane Fill Adaptors, Sterilizers, Bedpans, Stethoscopes, Fetal Dopples, Drip Stands, patient screens, theatre/medicine trolleys, vacuum extractors, wheelchairs and diagnostic sets.

The Ga East Municipal Director of Health Service, Dr. Selorm Kutsoati, who received the medical items, thanked the MP for her kind gesture and assured them to distribute the items and put them to good use.

She appealed to Hon. Safo to support the Municipal Health Directorate to get a Dental Chair for Abokobi and help expand the infrastructure facilities in their quest to upgrade to a polyclinic.
