The Ghana Medical Association has stated that plans to engage fresh doctors into the National Service Scheme might not work.
The scheme’s Executive Director, Vincent Kuagbenu, has announced that doctors and other health professionals graduating from tertiary institutions will join other graduates to do the one year mandatory national service.
But the president of the GMA, Dr. Adom Winful, said the association is unaware of the new plan.
He told Joy News Tuesday that Mr. Kuagbenu erred by announcing the move without first consulting such critical stakeholders as the GMA, the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service.
“What kind of service? Where are we going to serve and what are we going to do, we have been left wondering,” he said.
