The Ablekuma West Municipal Assembly today officially handed over the newly completed Ablekuma West Polyclinic to the Ghana Health Service, marking an important milestone in the Assembly’s efforts to improve healthcare delivery in the Municipality.

The construction of the Polyclinic commenced in 2023. It is expected to significantly improve access to quality and affordable healthcare for residents within Ablekuma West and surrounding communities.

The facility will bring essential healthcare services closer to residents, reduce the need to travel long distances to access medical care, strengthen primary and secondary healthcare delivery, and provide an improved environment for healthcare professionals to serve the growing population. It is also expected to contribute to early detection and treatment of illnesses, maternal and child healthcare, preventive healthcare and health education within the Municipality.

The ceremony was chaired by Nii Kanfran II, Gbegbeyise Mantse, and was attended by the Member of Parliament, Municipal Chief Executive, representatives from the Greater Accra Regional Health Directorate, Hon. Assembly Members, NDC Party executives, traditional authorities, community members and other stakeholders.

As part of the ceremony, the Municipal Health Directorate organised a free health screening exercise, providing residents with the opportunity to access basic health checks and professional medical advice.

The completion and handover of the Polyclinic represents more than the opening of another health facility. It is an investment in the health, wellbeing and future of the people of Ablekuma West.

The Ablekuma West Municipal Assembly remains committed to working with the Ghana Health Service and other stakeholders to improve the quality of life of residents and ensure that healthcare services are accessible to all.

A healthier Ablekuma West is a stronger Ablekuma West
