Construction work on the Cardiac Interventional Centre at KATH under MahamaCares progresses


The drive to strengthen specialist cardiac services at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) is gaining momentum following the steady progress being made on the construction of the Catheterization Laboratory (CATHLAB) and Cardiac Interventional Centre currently ongoing at the hospital under the Ghana Medical Trust Fund (GMTF).
Barely a month after work commenced on the project, work on the foundation of the three-storey building is almost completed to allow for the commencement of the construction of the super structure.
This was revealed during a special visit paid to the project site by Madam Obuobia Darko Opoku, the Administrator of the GMTF, also known as MahamaCares, to inspect the progress of work.
Madam Obuobia and her team accompanied by members of the management of the hospital were briefed and taken round the site by the Project Engineer, Mr. Abraham Kofi Boateng Fiscian, who noted that the original design envisaged for the project was a one-storey structure. He, however, pointed out that following extensive consultations with the hospital and its specialist doctors, it has been expanded to a three-storey building.
Mr. Fiscian observed that this strategic expansion reflects a forward-looking approach to infrastructure development which would ensure that the space was optimized and efficiently utilized to meet growing demand for advanced cardiac services.
He said technical meetings have been instituted to ensure regular engagements between the project engineers and that of KATH to ensure the seamless ex*****on of the project.
Madam Obuobia expressed her satisfaction with the pace and quality of work observed on site, noting that the project is advancing in line with agreed timelines.
She was also very happy about the coordinated planning and collaboration between KATH and the contractor stressing that this was going to help deliver a facility which is fit for purpose upon completion.
Mr. Fred Effah- Yeboah, Director of Administration, together with some management of KATH who received the delegation on behalf of the Chief Executive Officer, Dr. (Med) Paa Kwesi Baidoo, appreciated the commitment from the leadership of MahamaCares and reaffirmed the hospital’s steadfast commitment to the successful completion of the project.
Once operational, the facility is expected to significantly enhance KATH’s capacity to deliver advanced cardiac diagnostic and interventional services, reduce referrals, and further solidify the hospital’s role as a leading centre for sub-specialist care in Ghana and beyond.

KATH CEO HOLDS STRATEGIC ENGAGEMENT WITH SUPPLIERS

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), Dr. (Med) Paa Kwesi Baidoo, has held a strategic meeting with the suppliers of the hospital with the objective of building a mutually beneficial partnership to advance the delivery of specialized healthcare services to the public.

The meeting, the first since his assumption of office since May 2025, created a platform for renewed collaboration and shared responsibility in advancing healthcare delivery at KATH. It also provided the CEO with the opportunity to formally introduce himself to the suppliers as the new head of the institution and to outline his vision of stronger partnerships built on trust, compliance and efficiency.

At the heart of the engagement was a clear recognition that suppliers are integral to the operations of the hospital, with the CEO emphasising that “without you we are no longer a hospital.” He noted that the steady and compliant supply of medicines, consumables, equipment and essential services remains directly linked to patient care and overall service delivery. “Strengthening procurement processes therefore remains a critical priority for Management,” he stressed.

Facilitated by the Head of the Supply Chain Management Unit (SCMU), Mr. Joseph Opoku-Agyemang, the session focused on improving compliance and streamlining procurement procedures. Attention was drawn to recurring errors in the submission of tender documents, which often delay processing and affect outcomes. To address these challenges, a detailed PowerPoint presentation updated participants on the tendering process and the correct procedures to ensure successful outcomes.

The engagement was highly interactive, with suppliers being given the opportunity to ask pertinent questions and introduce themselves and their respective companies. This fostered familiarity and strengthened institutional relationships. The comprehensive question and answer session allowed for clarification, feedback and constructive suggestions on improving the system.

Management also reiterated the basic requirements for transacting business with a public institution, including valid business registration, tax clearance, SSNIT compliance and strict adherence to public procurement regulations.
The engagement reinforced KATH’s commitment to transparency, accountability and partnership, positioning suppliers not merely as service providers but as indispensable collaborators in sustaining quality specialist healthcare delivery.

🎒 *One strap today… neck pain tomorrow!*😬

Carrying a backpack on one shoulder may feel easy, but research shows *it puts uneven strain on your neck, shoulders, and upper spine*🦴💥

That imbalance forces one side of your body to overwork and this leads to *muscle fatigue*, *neck and shoulder pain*, and *poor posture over time*. No thank you❗️❗️🙅🏽‍♀️😖

*So what should you do?*
👇🏽
📍 Use both shoulder straps — balance is key 🎒⚖️
📍 Adjust straps so the bag sits snug on your back, not hanging low ⬆️
📍 Keep it light! Aim for 10–15% of your body weight 💡

Small tweak. Big relief.
Your neck and shoulders will feel the difference 💃🏽💪🏽✨

MahamaCares Administrator Inspects Commencement of Cath Lab Construction at KATH

Obuobia Darko-Opoku, Administrator of the Ghana Medical Trust Fund (Mahama Cares), today led a delegation to inspect the site for construction of a modern Catheterization Laboratory (Cath Lab) at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH).

The delegation, comprising representatives from the Ghana Health Service (GHS) and the construction firm ADB, was welcomed by the hospital’s management team. The project is on a fast-tracked schedule, with completion expected in three months as stated by the Administrator.

Madam Obuobia, addressing the gathering, reaffirmed the Fund’s mission: “Under the MahamaCares initiative, we are determined to bridge the gaps in non-communicable disease care across Ghana. This Cath Lab at KATH is a direct response to the needs identified in our assessments. We are fast-tracking it because every day without such a facility costs lives. Together with our partners, we are ensuring equitable access to specialized treatment for all Ghanaians” she said.

Stakeholders at the event applauded the initiative, emphasizing its potential to save countless lives by bringing advanced cardiac care closer to patients in the Ashanti Region and northern Ghana.

Speaking at the site, Chief Executive Officer at KATH, Dr. (Med) Paa Kwesi Baidoo expressed deep gratitude. “This Cath Lab is a game-changer for us. For years, we’ve had to refer critical heart patients to Accra, often with heartbreaking delays. This fast-tracked project will allow us to perform life-saving interventions right here, reducing mortality and easing the burden on families” he stated.
Dr. (Med) Baidoo, commended MahamaCares for prioritizing this and applauded the three-month timeline which according to him truly demonstrates commitment to saving critical lives.”

The Medical Director, Dr. (Med) Kwadwo Sarbeng, added “the absence of a dedicated Cath Lab has been a major challenge in managing cardiovascular emergencies. With this facility, we can conduct angiograms, angioplasty, and other procedures on-site” he gladly noted.

Once completed, the Cath Lab will serve millions and mark another milestone in the hospital’s efforts to strengthen healthcare infrastructure and delivery.
