A first batch of 121 nurses has been deployed to Antigua and Barbados under government’s three-year health workers exchange programme, which places Ghanaian nurses in partner countries as part of bilateral cooperation in the health sector.
The initiative offers international exposure for Ghanaian health workers while helping partner countries address critical nursing shortages.
The nurses were seen off at Kotoka International Airport by the Chief of Staff, Mr. Julius Debrah; the Minister of Health, Mr. Kwabena Mintah Akandoh; and the Minister of State in Charge of Special Initiatives, Mr. Emmanuel Kwadwo Agyekum.
