The Western Regional Minister and Member of Parliament for
Takoradi Constituency, Hon. Kobina Okyere Darko-Mensah, has officially
commissioned a newly constructed 60-bed health facility for the New
Takoradi Community.
The inauguration ceremony, held
yesterday marked a milestone in the ongoing efforts to improve
healthcare accessibility and quality for residents of the area.
The
New Takoradi Health facility was initiated over two decades ago to
serve the fishing community and neighboring towns. The facility has
grown from a Health Centre to a Polyclinic with 2-story, 4-unit
two-bedroom nurses’ apartments.
The newly commissioned 60-bed
facility is equipped with modern medical equipment designed to provide
comprehensive healthcare services.
The facility aims to reduce
the burden on the existing healthcare infrastructure and ensure that
residents have access to essential medical care closer to the community.
Addressing the commissioning ceremony, Hon. Darko-Mensah
highlighted the importance of the facility in addressing the healthcare
needs of the New Takoradi community.
According to the Takoradi
MP, the facility will not only provide immediate medical care but also
serve as a center for preventive healthcare and health education.
The
MP also expressed gratitude to the people of Takoradi for the
opportunity to serve them and assured the constituents of his commitment
to using his position as their representative and the Regional Minister
to lobby for more developments to improve their lives.
He also
thanked all stakeholders involved in the project, including the Ministry
of Health, Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolitan Assembly, and the contractor,
for their support and collaboration.
As the new health facility
opens its doors, it promises to bring improved health outcomes and a
brighter future for the people of New Takoradi. The community eagerly
anticipates the positive changes that this vital healthcare investment
will bring.
