Ghana’s Health Care Sector in 2015

“We are in a very exciting place in Ghana right now in terms of health care delivery,” says Dr. Elikem Tamaklo, Managing Director of Nyaho Medical Center.

“Over the last 20 to 25 years, Ghana has made significant strides in its delivery of healthcare services. There has been a shift during this period from clinical disease, such as Malaria and Tuberculosis, to more sub-clinical diseases, such as Hypertension, Diabetes and the cardiovascular risk factors associated with them,” he continues.

“For us as a hospital, we need to think very carefully about how we manage our resources to meet this current trend,” adds Dr. Tamaklo.
