LifeNet International (LNI) – a USA based Non-governmental Organization (NGO) working with Faith Based Health Facilities in Ghana has donated Medical Equipment worth over GHC100,000 to the Dzodze Ghana Mission Hospital in the Ketu North Municipality of the Volta region.
The equipment which included Baby Warmers, Penguin Sunctions, Fetal Dopplers, Delivery Sets, Patient Monitors and many others were presented at a short ceremony at the premises of the hospital on Thursday, February 2, 2023.
Country Director for LifeNet International, Idris Buabeng, said, his outfit was happy to partner with the Dzodze Ghana Mission Hospital in the delivery of quality healthcare to the people of Dzodze and surrounding communities.
“Our goals to improve health delivery in the country are ambitious and so our partners must be motivated too, hence the supply of these equipment towards the realization of such goals”. Buabeng said.
“Trust and the mutual desire to improve healthcare are non-negotiables – as an extension of our mutual relationship with God, we work together with existing faith-based facilities to transform the way they do business and care for their communities – we do this by supporting them with coaching and mentorship, the supply of medical equipment and branding”. He added.
“We also provide comprehensive solutions to elevate the standard of care for millions of vulnerable patients- This structure enables us to leverage existing processes, human, and physical capital for quick scale, high return on investment, and great impact for the health of millions of patients every year across the African continent”. He said.
Administrator of the Dzodze Ghana Mission Hospital, Mac Thompson Gbeti, who took delivery of the equipment on behalf of the hospital, expressed gratitude to LifeNet International for the intervention which he described as timely as the hospital badly needed them to improve upon it’s operations.
“These equipment would go a long way in helping efforts geared towards the provision of excellent health delivery since they are of high standard,” Gbeti observed.
He assured the donors of ensuring that the equipment were taken proper care of so as to serve their intended purpose.
