I am very sorry for the death of the lady. The point that must be realized is that some of these Health Care Professionals, including Nurses and Doctors there have not been paid for over 18 months. How do we expect them to wo ...

Technically we gained more under colonial rule than the last 2 Republics. We have enslaved ourself more than the slave masters did. In the olden days people were captured but these days we go into slavery ourselves in South A ...

This would be the very first time I'd have to agree with anything you've posted on this platform, because you are spot-on about Africans and slavery.
But, let me just add that the same Africans who are crying for reparatio ...

Really disappointed in your comments, do you think if they've not been paid for that long, Doctors will tolerate? And even if they've not been paid so is it justified to lower down your standard of care? Trust me, if this has ...

What is this nonsense you’re spewing out. They have not been paid so what? Should they kill some
You're a CAPITAL F00L!

Frank, I know you meant well but you missed the point. If these nurses haven't been paid and can't do satisfactory work then they shouldn't show up to work. Doctors and nurses have the responsibility to save lives and they sw ...

They are poorly trained. In addition many go to study nursing out of need.
Agyena, read well and note that this incident happened SIX years ago.
You can get that in the very first paragraph.
Now can you tell us who was in power 6 years ago?
In this life, we have NURSES and we have WORKERS.
The character traits of a NURSE are COMPASSION, EMPATHY, CARING, LOVE, INTEGRITY, ENCOURAGING, EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION, etc. So whether he or she get paid on time or not, he ...

Doctors and nurses have not been paid for 18 months? Here in Ghana?
VERY SAD. TAKE HEART MR KUTO. SOME MEDICAL STAFF ARE HEARTLESS. NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS. HMMMMMMMMM
GMA and GRNMA will never even comment on such misconduct and negligence. The moment the relevant authorities decide to sanction them, then they will come and defend their members and claim that they are being victimised.

The situation was not like that when we were growing up from the Colonial era, the times of Nkrumah, Afrifa, Busia and Acheampong. The Medical Staff were treated with respect and paid on time appropriately. What do we have no ...

Sadly this is the current state of life in our health sector and this is why the privileged few seek medical assistance abroad. Our society is screwed up and getting worse.
Ridge, Ridge, Ridge. That hospital, I think it's about time the government turns it's attention to there, the mortality rate is too low. Just between last year till early this year, the young women I know that have died there ...

Sad news honestly our Ghana nurses are not serious on the job
Why do most of these people enter nursing? Just money. They're not the Florence nightingale type.
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord

SD.com,
We nurses don't prescribe and we don't give orders.
The doctors prescribe and we follow what they said to do. This mistake probably was that the doctor's fault- wrong medicine or dose, or the nurse gave the wrong ...

It's the same in all government hospitals that's why all our politicians and their families seek health care abroad.
It jappens in all our hospitals. There appears to be some bad blood btween nurses and junior doctors in particular.
Dr. Kuto, let me first of all still send my condolences to you for the death of your wife. But I have few things to disagree with you, this is your wife we talking about when you realized the monkeys were making jest about th ...
