Ghana and Czech Republic celebrate Milestone in Healthcare with Kpone Hospital Commissioning
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Government of Ghana, in collaboration with the Czech Republic, has officially commissioned the Kpone Municipal Hospital in the Greater Accra Region.

This state-of-the-art facility, constructed by VAMED Health Projects CZ s.r.o., boasts modern medical amenities including an Outpatient Department, Surgical Suite, Delivery Unit, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Laboratory, Pharmacy, and a 40-bed inpatient ward.

The hospital also features a Services Block, staff offices, and accommodation, all backed by a one-year post-completion warranty and maintenance plan.

The project was made possible through a substantial funding package of €71.5 million, secured from Erste Group Bank AG and Česká Spořitelna a.s.

This financial backing was further bolstered by an €8.6 million export credit guarantee from EGAP, the Czech Republic’s Export Guarantee and Insurance Corporation.

Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, Ghana’s Health Minister, Hon. Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, highlighted the hospital’s role within a broader initiative aimed at enhancing healthcare access across multiple regions.

Communities in Eastern, Ashanti, and Ahafo regions, including Jumapo, Nkwatia, Suame, and Mim, are set to benefit from similar projects.

The Health Minister emphasized that these efforts not only improve healthcare outcomes but also create employment and economic opportunities, contributing to health-led development.

He said “These efforts are aimed at reducing health inequities and improving overall health outcomes, as evidenced by the decline in maternal and under-five mortality rates in recent years”.

His Excellency Petr Pavel, President of the Czech Republic, expressed deep pride in the collaboration between the two nations.

He noted that the Kpone Municipal Hospital represents not only a significant advancement in healthcare infrastructure but also a strengthening of the relationship between the Czech Republic and Ghana.

Background;
In October 2020, The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, cut the sod for the construction of a forty (40) bed Municipal Hospital at Kpone, in the Greater Accra Region.

According to President Akufo-Addo, the sod-cutting ceremony represents another important milestone in Government’s commitment to guaranteeing access to healthcare for all Ghanaians, through improving existing healthcare facilities and constructing new ones in places where none exist in the country.

The President told the gathering that government has secured funding towards the construction and equipping of twelve (12) hospitals with the associated staff accommodation facilities for hospital workers, and Kpone is one of the beneficiary communities.

An amount of seventy-five million, five hundred thousand euros (€71.5 million) from Erste Group Bank AG and Česká Spořitelna a.s., has been secured towards the construction and equipping of these twelve (12) hospitals. This is covered by an export credit guarantee of eight million, six hundred thousand euros (€8,612,931.30) from the EGAP of Czech Republic.

The project will be constructed by VAMED Engineering GmbH of Austria, a global leader in the construction of healthcare facilities, and the other beneficiary communities are Jumapo, Kwabeng, Nkwatia, Achiase and Adukrom in the Eastern Region; Suame, Drobonso, Sabronum, Manso Nkwanta, Twedie in the Ashanti Region; and Mim in the Ahafo Region.

These projects, including that of Kpone, are expected to be completed in twenty-four (24) months.
