HopeXchange Medical Centre, under the Christian Health Association of Ghana (CHAG) is lauding the American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA) grant program of USAID for the dedicated support in improving health care services in Ghana.

The arrival of a fully equipped mobile clinic will enable HopeXchange Medical Centre to soon roll out mobile health care services to augment its medical outreach.

With support from the American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA) grant program of USAID, the medical facility will be aided to reach underserved and remote communities, ensuring equal access to quality health care.

For more than a decade HopeXchange Medical Centre has been one of the beneficiaries and a partner of the American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA) grant program of USAID.

Through the unique partnership, the hospital serves the Ashanti region and Ghana with an American inspired tripartite approach in clinical care, medical education and translational research.

Through the generous support of ASHA/USAID, HopeXchange is set to receive a fully equipped mobile clinic to begin mobile health care services.

The mobile clinic will bridge healthcare delivery access for poor, needy, and vulnerable people needing critical medical assistance in remote areas.

General Manager of HopeXchange Medical Centre, Dominic Osei-Kofi said the partnership with ASHA/USAID has made HopeXchange a hub of medical training and quality delivery in the region.

“HopeXchange became a premiere hospital endowed with state-of-the-art American technology and expertise. A crowning achievement of the ASHA/USAID partnership is the construction of state-of-the-art Maternal and Child Health Centre (MCHC) which when completed will contribute immensely to the provision of needed health care for mothers and children especially, neonates in the country.

"The Centre will also advance the training of health care professionals and students in maternal and child health,” he said.

USA leading faculty members from Yale University, Mayo Clinic and others are actively involved in research, transfer of knowledge and American inspired hospital standard operation practices (SOPs) at the facility.

HopeXchange expressed a heartfelt appreciation to the U.S. government and corporate individuals for the remarkable contribution to the Ghana health sector through ASHA/USAID grants.
