The Auxiliary Bishop of Accra, Most Rev. John Kobina Louis, has reaffirmed the Ghana Catholic Bishop Conference's commitment to the SafeCare programme and the enduring partnership between the church and the state in healthcare delivery.
Speaking at the inauguration of the CHAG-SafeCare Hub in Accra, Bishop Louis commended the initiative for its transformative impact on healthcare in under-served communities.

"As a founding member of CHAG, the Ghana Catholic Bishop Conference is proud to be part of the SafeCare journey and commend all efforts at bringing health and healing to the greatest number of people in our country, especially the unreached, the under-served, and the poorly served segment of the population," he stated.
He highlighted the significance of the SafeCare programme in fostering a culture of quality and safety in healthcare within the CHAG network and Catholic Health Services Trust Facilities.
"We are delighted, therefore, that this programme is strengthening the culture of healthcare quality and safety within the CHAG network and the Catholic Health Services Trust Facilities. The programme is also protecting health facilities from avoidable adverse consequences, such as financial damages associated with medical legal cases, by adhering to high standards," he explained.

Bishop Louis emphasized the enduring partnership between the state and the church, underscoring their shared responsibility to ensure the health of the nation. He called for equitable distribution of national resources to further strengthen this collaboration.
"With gratitude, may I take this opportunity to affirm the abiding state-church partnership in health, which represents our shared responsibility for the health of our dear nation – Ghana. I believe there are more prospects and potentials for strengthening this partnership framework by ensuring equitable distribution of national resources for health," he said.

He also acknowledged the critical role of development partners, such as PharmAccess, in enhancing healthcare delivery.
"For our development partners such as PharmAccess, this joint SafeCare programme shows the value of collaboration and cooperation in promoting national and global health security. We remain grateful for demonstrating trust and confidence in CHAG," Bishop Louis added.
In his concluding remarks, Bishop Louis urged CHAG leadership to prioritize professional excellence and innovation to strengthen the health sector.

"Finally, to the entire CHAG leadership, it’s our fervent hope that you’ll continue to uphold your stewardship role in maintaining this edifice and safeguard standards of professional excellence by conceptualising innovative projects and programmes towards strengthening the CHAG network and the health sector as a whole," he said.

The inauguration of the CHAG-SafeCare Hub marks a significant milestone in Ghana's healthcare journey, reinforcing the commitment to quality care and collaboration in addressing the nation's healthcare needs.
