DBI: MP CUTS SOD FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF BUSSIE-DAGUUBAA CHPS COMPOUND
The esteemed Member of Parliament and the NDC 2024 Parliamentary Candidate for the Daffiama-Bussie-Issa Constituency Hon Dr Sebastian Ngmenenso Sandaare cut sod for the construction of a Community-Based Health Planning and Services facility (CHPS) compound at Dagubaa in the Bussie paramountcy.
The CHPS compound is a basic structure consisting of accommodation of CHOs and a service delivery point. The new edifice when completed will help deliver efficient health care services to the over 300 people living in Dagubaa.
The Law-maker recognizing the importance of health to the good people of Dagubaa and the stress they go through in travelling over 3kilometers to Bussie to access health care, said we must prioritize our health needs by constructing health facilities close to our people to cater for the health needs in the community.
He reaffirmed his commitment to enhancing the health delivery within the Daffiama-Bussie-Issa District/Constituency. He said he is collaborating closely with the District and Regional Health Directorate and other agencies in health to get most of the health facilities in the district to be upgraded to Health Centers and Polyclinics.
He said the community cannot continue to operate health service in a rented apartment for over periods when there should have a well equiped health facility.
After the sod cutting, the hardworking Member of Parliament donated 100 bags of cement to start the project, 2 boxes of drugs and BP apparatus costing Ghc2,000.00 to the community and Gh500.00 to help cater for the organization cost.
However, the member of Parliament later inspected the progress of work on the ongoing assisted community maternity ward construction at the Bussie Health Center. It is worth noting that, the Member of Parliament donated 100 bags of cement and roofing materials to complete the maternity ward to help expand the facility to a Polyclinic status. Work is progressing steadily and handing over of the newly constructed block will be done sooner.
The community members through their chief, Naa Galyuoni George expressed their unwavering appreciations to the Member of Parliament for such reliefs to the community and considering their health.
The Law-maker was accompanied by the Constituency Chairman Mr Tienaah Boniface, Constituency Vice Chairman Hon Haruna Semba, Constituency Organizer Hon Peter Tabiasi-Naa, the Assembly man Elect for Bussie West, Hon Prosper Maaledoma, the Bussie Zonal Coordinator Mr Kyengbe Halilu and community members.
