The Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH) is working to reduce childhood cancer cases in the country by 2030.
This came to light when the Hospital, in partnership with World Childhood Cancer, WCC organized the maiden annual childhood cancer performance review to improve and create awareness on the treatment of early childhood cancer.
The vision is for every child with cancer to have equal access to treatment and eradicate the increasing numbers of early childhood cancer from 16 years and above. Head of the Oncology Unit, Child Health, Professor Lorna Awo Renner, said the hospital had remained the premium facility for childhood cancer treatment.
The performance review agreed to improve other medical disorders in pathology, hematology, pediatric radiology, surgery, pharmacy, health information and general services at the KBTH to enhance healthcare delivery to the public.
