The Ministry of Health has officially inaugurated Dr (Med) Hintermann K. K. Mbroh as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ho Teaching Hospital, along with an eleven-member Governing Board mandated to enhance the hospital’s governance and strategic direction.

The inauguration ceremony took place on 16 June 2025 in Accra, with senior Ministry officials in attendance.

Dr Mbroh, an experienced medical professional with a strong background in clinical practice, hospital management, and healthcare systems development, assumes leadership with a vision to drive operational efficiency, innovation, and institutional growth.

“I am honoured to be entrusted with this role,” Dr Mbroh said. “Ho Teaching Hospital plays a vital role in Ghana’s healthcare system, and I am committed to advancing its mission through strategic leadership, innovation, and a patient-centred approach.”

He also underscored his commitment to the hospital’s core values—commitment, accountability, dedication, innovation, professionalism, integrity, teamwork, and safe care—as essential principles to guide institutional transformation.

The new Governing Board is chaired by Dr Delanyo Yao Tsidi Dovlo and includes professionals from diverse fields such as medicine, academia, law, and finance. The board is expected to provide robust oversight and policy direction in line with the Ministry of Health’s broader healthcare agenda.

The Ministry commended the outgoing leadership for their service and reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Ho Teaching Hospital with the resources required to thrive as a centre of clinical excellence, medical training, and research.

With new leadership in place, expectations are high for reforms that will improve patient care, expand training capacity, and solidify the hospital’s position as a cornerstone of Ghana’s healthcare delivery system.
