Ministers and Elders of the Ghana Police church have presented various items valued at GH¢8000 to the Police Hospital at a ceremony in Accra.
The items include bedside cabinets, wheel chairs, screens, furniture, disposable gloves, theatre boots wardrobes and air conditioners.
The church has also adopted the female ward of the hospital and pledged to expand and refurbish the reception area to make waiting more comfortable.
Presenting the items, the Superintendent Minister, Very Rev Twum-Baah of the church said the presentation forms part of the church's social responsibility.
He said on a recent visit the elders of the church realised that the hospital lacked certain basic facilities so they decided to help.
He pledged the church’s continuous support to the hospital and expressed the hope that the items will assist the hospital in providing quality service to patients.
Dr Godfried Asiamah, Medical Director of the hospital who received the items thanked the church for the gesture.
He said the government alone cannot provide all the needs of the hospital, adding that such initiatives from the public were always welcome.
