Expectant Mothers Forced to Deliver on Floor at Yeji Matthias Hospital Amid Overcrowding

Expectant mothers at Yeji Matthias Hospital in the Pru East District are reportedly being forced to deliver their babies on the bare floor, due to severe overcrowding and a lack of space in the hospital’s labour ward. The disturbing situation has sparked public outrage and urgent appeals from healthcare workers, residents, and local authorities for immediate government intervention. According to Adom News reporter Daniel Tachie, the hospital’s medical team says the current labour ward is too small to accommodate the growing number of deliveries. This leaves midwives and doctors overwhelmed, compromising both maternal and neonatal safety. “We are doing our best to save lives, but the environment is not conducive. Sometimes women in labour have to lie on the floor because all beds are occupied. It breaks our hearts as health workers,” said Dr. Evans Narh Dotcher, Acting Medical Director […]

Ghana in Talks to Send Nurses Abroad to Ease Job Backlog
