Chairman of the Coalition of Health NGOs, Dr. Gabriel Benarkuu, says it is almost time the government sets up a committed emergency finance for emergency reaction issues among others.


Concurring to him, the need of such an emergency finance has been the cause of numerous inadequacies in Ghana’s emergency reaction benefit.


He also called for an arrangement changes within the nation’s wellbeing care framework that will not as it were address these inadequacies but moreover make strides on the quality of human asset working with the benefit and their demeanor.


He said, “This issue is fair a tip of the ice sheet. It is something that has called for approach changes, it is something that has come and we must see at our change forms of getting the human asset demeanor that must be changed.”



His comments were in reaction to the death of a 31 year ancient unused mother who supposedly kicked the bucket since the emergency vehicle she was being transported in did not have sufficient fuel for the trip.


Agreeing to Dr. Benarkuu, the occurrence might have been totally dodged on the off chance that the nation had a committed emergency reaction support devoted to resourcing the emergency reaction benefit.


“It is something that has come that calls for setting up a ceaseless emergency finance, which has been a major issue inside the Ghana Health Service  and Ministry of Health, that we do not have a committed emergency support for any of the wellbeing issues that we’ve given, particularly the emergency reaction issues.



“So we think that this is often the time for the nation to rally behind the Service of Wellbeing to truly come out with legitimate changes on our emergency wellbeing accounts and arrangement in Ghana,” he said.
