Reverend Eastwood Anaba, the President of Eastwood Anaba Ministries (EAM), has called on healthcare professionals to pay critical attention to the safety of expectant mothers during childbirth.
He said the Bible promises women's safety in childbearing and urged healthcare professionals to pray and work hard to achieve that objective.
The renowned preacher quoted 1 Timothy 2:14-15, explaining that the "Bible strongly recommends support and teaches safety in childbearing for women." Reverend Anaba made the call when he chaired the opening ceremony of the 2024 annual performance review meeting of the Ghana Health Service (GHS) in Bolgatanga, in the Upper East Region.
The two-day meeting was themed: "Using Network of Practice (NoP) to Drive Universal Access to Quality Maternal Health Care." The NoP, a healthcare model that connects public and private health facilities within a geographic area, consists of a hub-a well-resourced central facility offering essential primary healthcare services-and 'spokes' established to provide complementary services.
