Govt has unveiled plans to construct nearly 600 Community-based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) compounds nationwide by the end of 2025.
This ambitious initiative, aimed at broadening access to essential healthcare services, underscores the government’s commitment to improving the country’s healthcare infrastructure.
According to Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Minister of State in Charge of Government Communications, each district is slated to construct two new CHPS compounds this year, collectively amounting to around 600 CHPS compounds in 2025 alone.
“Each district is required to construct two new CHPS compounds this year. Altogether, that amounts to about 600 CHPS compounds in 2025 alone. If we sustain this momentum, we could exceed 2,000 CHPS compounds over the next four years,” he stated.
Kwakye Ofosu hailed the initiative as a major breakthrough in enhancing healthcare delivery, particularly in underserved and rural communities.
He indicated that, by expanding access to primary healthcare services, the government aims to bridge the healthcare gap and foster a healthier country.
Ultimately, with this initiative, Ghana is poised to make significant strides in improving its healthcare landscape, ultimately enhancing the well-being of its citizens.
