The Bekwai Municipal Hospital has reported saving 80% of premature babies admitted each month, a success highlighted during the observance of World Premature Baby Day, also known as Pre-Term Day.
Speaking to Adom News correspondent Isaac K. Normanyo after the programme, Dr Anna Amankwaah, Resident Paediatrician at the Bekwai Municipal Hospital, said the day is worth celebrating due to the hospital’s high success rate in treating premature newborns.
She advised expectant mothers to prioritise proper antenatal care over self-medication, stressing that the best health services for both mothers and babies can only be obtained in a hospital setting.
Queen Elizabeth Sarkodie, mother of a premature baby, praised the hospital’s services, urging all mothers to trust Ghanaian medical practitioners.
She described the Bekwai Municipal Hospital as “very excellent” in saving the lives of pre-term babies.
