The Korle Bu Senior Staff Association (KOSSA) has raised concerns about who will constitute the next leadership at the nation’s premier teaching hospital.
They have urged the Minister of Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, to engage extensively with all relevant stakeholders in selecting the next leadership team for Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
KOSSA says they remain open and ready for discussions and collaborations whenever necessary.

We firmly believe that under your stewardship, and with the right leadership at the hospital, we can restore Korle Bu to its former glory and ensure it delivers the highest standard of care to our cherished clients.

“We are confident that your leadership, vision, and commitment to healthcare excellence will significantly impact the Ministry of Health. Your experience on the Health Committee has undoubtedly equipped you with valuable insights to drive meaningful reforms and improvements in our healthcare system, a statement they issued said.

Addressing these issues will require a visionary and transformative leader – one who can reposition this national asset to deliver world-class healthcare services to Ghanaians and beyond, the statement said.
