“These monitors will help us because when the patient is deteriorating or improving, it will give us the vital signs that we need continuously so that we can immediately put in the right intervention at the right time to make sure that lives are saved…These items have come in good time and we need them to effectively deliver our services on our promise,” she said.

“We are grateful and we assured you that these medical equipment will be maintained and used to improve healthcare delivery to the people,” she added.
