Ghana Foundation on Tuesday donated medical equipment running into thousands of Ghana Cedis to the Kotokuom Health Centre in the Atwima-Mponua District of the Ashanti Region.
These included foetal heart detector, digital sphygmanometer, examination couches, bowl lifting forceps, trolley instruments, steam and bowl sterilizers, vaccine fridge, delivery beds, infant resuscitator, stethoscope, adult weighing scale and wheel chairs.
Ms Rhoderlyn Entsua-Mensah, Health Projects Advisor of the Foundation, said she was confident the items would significantly help to raise the quality of care at the facility.
The Centre, on the average, attends to about 200 patients daily.
Ms Entsua-Mensah spoke of the determination of the Foundation to assist in improving health care delivery in the country.
She said it was on account of this that it had been supporting a number of health projects across the nation.
Ms Entsua-Mensah said it had already furnished the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital's Maternity Ward and equipped it with state-of-the-art equipment including a complete set of anaesthetic machine, theatre table with accessories, radiant heater, obstetrics and gynaecology equipment and all purpose theatre light combination.
Dr Belinda Baffoe-Bonnie, Atwima- Mponua District Director of Health Service, who received the items, thanked the Foundation for the gesture and urged the staff of the Centre to take advantage of the donation to improve their services.
