Ridge Hospital

Tension is heightening in the hospital as some senior staff have petitioned the Ghana Health Service demanding a probe into the appointment of the new Medical Director of the facility, Dr Thomas Anaba.

The Ghana Health Service Council has asked staff of the Ridge Hospital to exercise restraint as it investigates issues surrounding the appointment of a new Medical Director of the hospital, Dr. Thomas Anaba.

There is uneasy calm at the Ridge Hospital as some senior staff have petitioned the Ghana Health Service demanding a probe into the appointment of the new Medical Director of the facility, Dr Thomas Anaba.

The staff argue that the selection process for Dr Anaba's position has been breached.

They also argue that Dr Anaba is not qualified to be a Medical Director, adding that the hospital should not be left in the care of inexperienced people.

In an interview with Pulse.com.gh, Director General of the Ghana Health Service, Dr. Appiah Denkyira said the petition is currently being discussed.

"We assure them [aggrieved staff] that their concerns are being addressed", he added.
