AMA Mayor equips health workers to strengthen post-flood community health services

The items were presented on Thursday as part of the Assembly's efforts to strengthen post-flood response, improve public health surveillance, support community health outreach and protect residents from potential health risks associated with flooding.

The Mayor of Accra, Michael Kpakpo Allotey, has presented medical supplies to the Health Directorate of the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) to support healthcare delivery in communities affected by the recent floods.

He noted that the recent flooding had created public health concerns in several communities, making it necessary for the Assembly to intensify sanitation, disinfection, health screening, disease prevention and community-level health interventions.
