Given the kath strike, it is only a matter of time before Manhyia, Suntreso, and Kumasi South hospitals also exceed capacity. There is a major crisis looming. Akandoh’s legacy

[Alfred @CallmeAlfredo]

There is probably a middle ground where the doctors at KATH can unequivocally condemn the suspension of the CEO without jeopardizing an already fragile healthcare delivery system.

At the same time, I can understand why they may feel the need to send a strong message. Their concern may not be limited to this situation alone but rather the broader pattern of holding certain individuals responsible for systemic challenges that have accumulated over many years within the healthcare system.

[Dr.Agyen🇬🇭 @DrKwabenaAgyen]

We never learn as a country.

The NDC appears far more interested in controlling perceptions than confronting realities.

A hospital runs out of capacity, patients are at risk, and instead of mobilising resources and fixing the crisis, the man who sounded the alarm is suspended.

When image management becomes more important than problem solving, governance turns into theatre and citizens pay the price.

[#Let'sTalkGhana @drgyimah]

A directive that no patient be turned away, noble as it is, can't be effected in a vacuum without proper and adequate health infrastructure and personnel.

There comes a point, beyond which, the apparent risks far outweigh the benefits in a health facility.

Overcrowding increase the rate of spread of infections and in a relatively under resourced facility, the burnout could lead to avoidable errors by health professionals.

The directive should be fairly matched with the realities at the facility otherwise healthcare delivery would suffer.

[A. T. K ⚕️ @atkkay]

Data driven healthcare is the practice in sane societies

Every health facility knows their catchment areas, population stats etc. They expand their ED size to accommodate this

But not my country

[Sebastian⚕ @e_newel]

This is upsetting. The average citizen would have to sit in a chair or lay on a mat to be attended to but you’d never ever see a politician in such a situation. The very people you’re advocating for will end up backing these politicians because “Drs are too know” Chale!

[That Guy @LordBogos]

After the directive, what did the government do to increase space at the hospital?

[Sebastian⚕ @e_newel]

My God. I hope we don’t compromise on patient safety and care. I pray our doctors don’t get burned out from the stress of working under these impossible conditions. If it so happens that these men and women break, we are in trouble.

[Sebastian⚕ @e_newel]

We are in trouble. Patients are in trouble. Ghanaians are in trouble if hospital admins are being punished for halting admissions when they’ve exceeded twice their capacity. We are in trouble!

Club Trophy card Against Messi ? 🤣

[Dr Erica Ntiamoah Mensah @dr_erica_dr]

Some regional hospitals have no cardiologist, nephrologist or anaesthesiologist but we want to export the few we have?

I think I don't understand the nuances of our healthcare system yet.

I needed a cardiologist in one region just this weekend ...u can imagine the response.....

But we want to export 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[A. T. K ⚕️ @atkkay]

And see some conversations i come meet

I don’t know if it’s deliberate foolishness or the improvisation has made people think thats the standard practice lol

If I write PUD in my notes and don’t talk about previous EGD dem fi query me for more evidence

[juju @jnrjust_ice]

Whoever decided to dash azole suffixes out worry person roff. Cos why are antifungals, antibiotics, ppis and antipsychotics using it???

[Dr. Banda Khalifa MD, MPH, MBA @dr_bandak]

Amazing logic.

Underpay them, overwork them, then act shocked when money becomes part of the conversation.

This country loves to romanticize sacrifice when it does not want to fund competence.

In Ghana, once your work is called “noble,” prepare to be underpaid and guilt-tripped indefinitely.

[juju @jnrjust_ice]

People are so funny😂. Saying GCPS should ban the Laboratory Physician program ei

[Psalm @Kanton483]
