During the visit, the Deputy Minister engaged management and frontline healthcare professionals to gain first-hand insight into the operational realities of Ghana's major referral facilities.

Welcoming the government delegation, the Chief Executive Officer of Tamale Teaching Hospital, Dr. Abubakari Bawah Abdulai, highlighted several measures the hospital has implemented to enhance maternal care.
