Strong health systems are built by dedicated professionals who show up every single day with the courage to care, support, and change lives.

As part of our 'Providing Rehabilitation Services for Children with Disabilities in Ghana' project, we have partnered with the Ghana Health Service for a two-day training workshop for prosthetic and orthotic technicians.

This workshop is to create space for continuous learning, knowledge sharing, and confidence-building in new and emerging rehabilitation techniques.

At KOFIH, we believe that when health professionals are equipped with the right skills and resources, they can deliver the every child, family, and community deserves.

Ever wondered why doctors sometimes remove the gallbladder?

The gallbladder may be small, but it plays an important role. It sits just beneath the liver and stores bile, a fluid that helps the body digest fat.

Sometimes, it develops gallstones; small, hard stones that form when bile becomes too thick. When this happens, the gallbladder can swell, block the flow of bile, and cause severe pain.

To treat this, doctors perform a cholecystectomy, a surgery that removes the gallbladder.

Over the past two days, the second cohort of our Strengthening Laparoscopic Surgery Capacity Project at the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital has successfully performed three laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries. Each operation showed growing skill, teamwork, and confidence in the operating room.

For two years, โ€™s Strengthening Laparoscopic Surgery Capacity Project has opened new possibilities in surgical care at the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital.

Through this initiative, 31 health professionals have gained advanced laparoscopic skills, helping patients recover faster and safer while strengthening Ghanaโ€™s surgical care system.

Today, with the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital, lively conversations and shared reflections filled the room as partners and health professionals from Ghana and Korea came together for our End of Project Performance Review.

That is the life-saving ratio of chest compressions to breaths during CPR.
