American Ambassador assists Klo Djekiti CHPS compound
Correspondence from Eastern Region:
The American Ambassador to Ghana, Stephanie S. Sullivan, through her special “Ambassador’s Self Help Programme”, has assisted once inoperable Community-based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) compound at Klo Djekiti to start functioning.
But for her swift and timely assistance, the CHPS compound would still have been sitting unused since almost every equipment in the facility was donated by Ambassador Sullivan under her special self-help programme.
As a result of Ghanaweb’s report in April, the newly built CHPS compound, which was rendered useless due to lack of electricity, water and health equipment needed to deliver healthcare to Klo Djekiti community in the Lower Manya Krobo Municipality, is now functioning fully to the benefit of the rural folks.
