The Antoa Nsuase Royal Family has donated hospital equipment to the Antoa Clinic, Anglican Senior High School, and Kumasi Children’s Home to support healthcare delivery, education, and philanthropic work, respectively.
This act of kindness was carried out by the children and grandchildren of Nana Akua Afriyie Siakwan (Ex-Antoahemaa) to commemorate the 25-year anniversary of her passing.
Items donated to the clinic included hospital beds, weighing scales, air conditioners, labour beds, autoclaves, baby warmers, baby’s cots, and several other essential medical supplies.
Other items presented to the Anglican Senior High School and the Kumasi Children’s Home included televisions and fridges, as well as food items and other necessities, respectively.
In an interview with OTEC News, a representative of the Antoa Royal Family, who is also the former Director of Keta Port Development and former CEO of PSC Tema Shipyard Limited, Dr Alexander Yaw Adusei Jr., stated that the equipment would significantly enhance healthcare services and improve the treatment of patients at the clinic.
He further revealed that, beyond the already completed facelift of the maternity unit, plans are underway to construct a nurses’ bungalow to provide comfortable accommodation for healthcare staff, ensuring they can better attend to patients and remain within the hospital premises.
The Municipal Health Director for Kwabre East, Elsie Kissi Appiah, expressed profound gratitude to the donors for their generous contribution, which is estimated to be worth over GH¢500,000.
She noted that the donated equipment would go a long way in improving healthcare delivery at the Antoa Clinic and assured that a culture of maintenance would be practised to sustain the equipment for years to come.
Similarly, the Headmistress of the Secondary School and the Head of the Kumasi Children’s Home expressed their gratitude for the gesture and prayed for God’s kindness and blessings on the family.
