1,000 maternal deaths recorded in Ashanti Region – GHS
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Ghana Health Service (GHS) has revealed that 1,000 women lost their lives during childbirth in the Ashanti Region between 2020 and 2024.

This alarming statistic underscores the persistent challenge of maternal mortality despite efforts to improve maternal healthcare.

Speaking at the 2024 Regional Health Forum in the Ashanti Region, Regional Health Director Dr Frank Adomanko Boateng emphasised the urgent need for stronger interventions to curb the high rate of maternal deaths.

He noted that the region is struggling to meet the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target of reducing maternal mortality to 70 deaths per 100,000 live births by 2030.

“Time is not on our side as we strive to achieve the target of 70 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births by 2030. The clock is ticking, and we must double our efforts,” Dr Boateng stated.

He called for intensified measures over the next six years to bridge the gap and prevent further loss of lives.
