He commended the staff of the 37 Military Hospital for their dedication and hard work in spite of the challenges they faced in their efforts at improving healthcare delivery.
The Deputy Minister gave the assurance during the annual end of the year dinner and dance ceremony of the 37 Military Hospital Officers MESS in Accra.
He said the past years has seen the nation experiencing its fair share of national disasters, disease outbreaks and strike actions, which to the large extent stretched the resources of the Hospital.

“The hospital's ability to handle the situation despite all the challenges provides assurance to the people and government that the Military Hospital is capable of performing under the most challenging situations to ensure efficient healthcare,” he added.
He said the staff's dedicated and endless hours of service, motivation and focus even in the face of several obstacles are very much recognised and appreciated.
Mr Adjei said the Hospital was the base hospital for the country’s Armed Forces, National Emergency and Disaster Hospital and the Level 4 Hospital for the United Nations deployment in West Africa.
It also continues its expanded role to cater for clients and patients from all parts of the country as well as serves as a referral centre.
The Deputy Minister noted that all these added roles calls for an improvement in infrastructure and logistics to assist in the smooth running of the facility, which the Ministry has plans for.

He said to extend and improve the quality of health of the citizenry, the country’s health sector has witnessed massive infrastructural development and retooling in the past few years which includes the construction of new hospitals which the Ministry was benefiting from.
Mr Adjei said the soon to be completed 500-bed Military Hospital in Kumasi would be the second largest hospital as well as improve access to quality healthcare to the people of the middle and northern parts of the country, while reducing the pressure on the 37 Military Hospital.
