She pointed out that the Ghanaian Community Health Clinic’s mission is to provide accessible and quality healthcare services to the Ghanaian community and beyond and is committed to ensuring the well-being and health of its patients.
The Health Clinic is one of the most audacious and auspicious programs undertaken by the GNC; however, community members’ participation is at the lowest ebb. We at Sankofaonline plead with members of the Ghanaian community and others to patronize services the GCHC provides.
We thank the Church of Pentecost for their Recognition, which we hope will motivate the healthcare team to sustain the program regardless of the challenges and shortcomings they face.
