CHIEF OF STAFF COMMISSIONS ULTRA MODERN OXYGEN PLANT AT 37 MILITARY HOSPITAL
Akosua Frema Osei-Opare, the Chief of Staff, has commissioned an ultra-modern oxygen plant for the 37 Military Hospital at a ceremony in Accra.
The hospital, since 2009, has been operating a 20 normal meter cube Linde oxygen plant, which was bedeviled with frequent break downs.
The new 50 Newton-meter cube production plant, is three times the capacity of the old plant and it has the ability to dock 10 cylinders at a time, compared to the old plant, which docks only one cylinder.
Commissioning it, Madam Osei-Opare noted that oxygen was one of the critical consumables in the healthcare delivery chain the world over, adding that, the occasion marked another stride in government’s quest to achieve quality and efficient universal health care delivery.
“The importance of medical oxygen in all hospitals in Ghana cannot be overemphasized and commended the Military High Command and the 37 Military Hospital in their perseverance to get the best for their patient always,” she added.
The Chief of Staff noted that the old and obsolete plant, having served its purpose, suffered frequent breakdowns causing nerve-cracking moments for staff and patients, could no longer sustain the increase in demand.
Madam Osei-Opare said the new oxygen plant had come as “good news” to the Ambulance Service, Medical Reception Stations and all hospitals who hitherto, wait long hours and sometimes, days to get refills from the facility.
She was confident that the production plant, which met the highest standards of safety, reliability, and efficiency, would be maintained effectively by the hospital.
The Chief of Staff assured the hospital of government’s support to deal with the myriad of problems and challenges militating against the full implementation and delivery of universal health care in the hospital.
“As a sequel to this, a new multipurpose X-ray machine has been procured, installed and currently in use, whilst a new CT Scan and Fluoroscopy machine are expected to arrive soon,” She added.
Madam Osei-Opare entreated corporate Ghana and benevolent persons to support health institutions in order to complement government’s effort in improving the lives of people.
Brigadier General Michael Yeboah Agyapong, Commanding Officer of the 37 Military Hospital, expressed appreciation to the government and Military High Command for supporting the hospital to secure the new oxygen plant.
Brigadier General Agyapong recalled that the old plant, which was secured during phase two of the hospital’s expansion, broke down three times a week from the beginning of 2018.
This, he noted, did not affect the operations of the hospital but the Ambulance Service and all clinics within the hospital’s vicinity that depended on their plant for a refill.
He said the hospital was in dire need of a Magnetic Resonance Imaging Machine, saying, what they have, had broken down for several years.
The Commanding Officer of the 37 Military Hospital appealed to stakeholders to help raise the facility to the desired standard as it strived to get inputs for the commencement of the third phase of the hospital project.

DEBUT ALBUM: Miriam Mandipira & The Soul Family
DEBUT ALBUM by Miriam Mandipira & The Soul Family!
You’ve never heard a voice like Miriam Mandipira’s. Undeservedly, she doesn’t take credit for the power or presence she delivers. For Miriam, music is much more than just notes and words. It’s
magic. And faith. You can experience it LIVE and on the album, which is set to be released on September 1st.
She has been singing for as long as she can remember, growing up with her ears glued to the radio.
From the moment her school teacher asked her to sing in class, the rest has been history. From Africa to Denmark, from Book Café in Harare to Mojo Blues Bar and the big concert halls. From
Danish Radio Big Band to the Royal Theater. Music is music, and Miriam is the music.
“But it’s not about me when I sing. I’m just the instrument, and when I’m on stage with my band, I sing from a place that’s not about rules and technique but about emotions,” says the singer, who is
seriously trying her hand at songwriting – together with her Soul Family on the album “Ndiwe”, which means ‘you are the chosen one of my heart.’ The overall message is impossible to ignore
Love.
“Call me a soul singer, call me a jazz singer. I don’t care. Good music is good music, and I love interpreting other people’s songs and being inspired. At the same time, I think it’s great to try my
hand at creating and writing the songs myself – and with my friends in the Soul Family, I have found my place. They are my family, and the curiosity and respect we share are fantastic.”
You can experience that up close when Miriam & The Soul Family take the stage. The enthusiasm for music and communication is impossible to ignore and hear.
“I love to maintain the feeling of being a child. It’s an excitement and curiosity that keeps me going, and that’s why I’m so excited about every single concert – no matter how small or large it is.
Otherwise, I would never do it. This is not just a casual thing. This is a life, and everything means something,” says Miriam, who began her years in Denmark by jamming at Mojo Blues Bar, building a network.
