Management of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH) has assured that a faulty elevator at the Surgical Department will be repaired within the next two months to enhance the delivery of emergency surgeries.
The commitment comes after concerns were raised by the Neurological Department over the breakdown of one of its two elevators.
According to citinewsroom.com report, during a visit by Parliament's Health Committee on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, the Chief Executive of the hospital, Dr Yakubu Seidu Adam, said the delay stemmed from challenges with approvals at the Public Procurement Authority (PPA). "The procurement has been done.
There was some delay with the PPA, but it was finally approved, and we have given it to the vendor.
