Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Saddick Adams, a sports journalist, claims that the government is to blame for nurses’ problems, despite the fact that the public typically holds nurses accountable for the poor performance of their tasks.
To support his argument, Mr. Adams cited, among other things, the lengthy wait times for the posting of qualified nurses and the subpar working conditions they are subjected to. He also noted that Ghanaian nurses who travel abroad (to places like the UK or the US) do well because of the favourable working conditions and pay there.
You’d be shocked at the number of trained nurses who are home, unemployed and those pretending to be employed without a decent salary.
Some of these nurses complete school and for three years, have to know a big man who knows another big man before they get posted. That’s the stress they go through just to put this training to use. They simply have to beg to work.
If you enter a public health center and see the kind environment they work in and the improvisation they have to do, we all would cut down on our insults at them.
And if their so-called incompetence is from their training as we put it, whose responsibility is it to provide the quality of training?
Leadership has failed from top to the rock bottom but rather surprisingly, the people who receive much of the blame are the same people who have been failed. The people.
After all your best leaders travel to the UK with the slightest headache so what’s wrong if our nurses are meeting them there?
Majority of you reading this know a nurse or two who have left Ghana in the last few years. Ask them the transformation in their lives, families and importantly, how their individual capacities have improved,” he asserted on social media.
