Sad sad sad it's such a shame and a disgrace. Our hospitals have become death traps. As for emergency care forget it. My friend's husband had a stroke she put him in her car and went through 4 hosp before they will even take him in. First was to Korle bu they said they had no bed, then Accra polyclinic same then Ridge hosp same story. Finally 37 took him in after she had travelled all round Accra in trafic with a man who had suffered a stroke. What chance for that man? He died 3 weeks later. Unbelievable.
