He said there was the need to improve the nation’s health systems to achieve useful health outcomes.
Mr Sandaare, who is also the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Dafiama,Bussie/Issa Constituency in the Upper West Region, said this when the Committee visited the Techiman Holy Family Hospital in Bono East.
The visit was to enable the Committee members including Professor Dr Titus Beyou, the MP for Lambussie and Mr Emmanuel Kwaku Boam, the MP for Pru East, to assess the operations of the facility.
Mr Sandaare said the visit would enable the Committee to produce a comprehensive report that would guide the government to improve conditions of the various public health facilities and to facilitate the provision of quality healthcare service delivery.
He commended the hospital management, staff and health workers for their efforts in providing quality services, assuring them of the government’s readiness to tackle emerging challenges impeding healthcare service delivery nationwide.
Dr Peter Yeboah, the Executive Director of the Christian Health Association of Ghana (CHAG), said the facility remained committed to collaborate with the government to improve health outcomes.
He said the hospital was a major referral facility in the Bono East Region and served as a Specialist Training Facility for both medical officers and nurses, as well as a research centre and called for increased government support in retooling the place for its effective delivery of services to these communities.
Dr Yeboah said the facility required clinical infrastructure and a medical education centre to be able to efficiently deliver its mandate and called for extensive support from all stakeholders.
