Project C.U.R.E., the world’s largest distributor of donated medical supplies serving more than 135 countries, has begun a 10-day engagement in Ghana to assess hospital needs and strengthen healthcare delivery.
The collaboration was formally marked by the arrival of Emily Helen Davidson, an official assessor from Project C.U.R.E., who will work closely with the Ghana Medical Trust Fund team, led by Dr. Norbert Kipo.
During her visit, Ms. Davidson will conduct detailed assessments across selected teaching and referral hospitals, identifying priority gaps in equipment and supplies to improve the country’s capacity to manage non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension, diabetes, and cancer.
Speaking at the start of the engagement, Dr. Kipo described the visit as timely and impactful.
“This is more than a visit; it is a partnership that brings progress. Through this collaboration, we are ensuring that every intervention is evidence-based and aligned with the real needs of our hospitals,” he said.
Ms. Davidson emphasised Project C.U.R.E.’s commitment to providing targeted support.
“Over the coming days, we will engage hospital leadership to assess infrastructure, staffing, patient volumes, and critical equipment gaps. Our goal is to ensure that every donation is relevant and responsive to Ghana’s healthcare priorities,” she said.
The findings from the 10-day assessment will guide tailored plans to deliver essential diagnostic equipment and consumables to the hospitals.
Officials say the initiative reflects a shared vision to improve healthcare outcomes and strengthens the government’s commitment to tackling NCDs under the broader “Mahama Cares” agenda.
“We care, and truly, Mahama Cares,” Dr. Kipo added.
