The Chairman of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Health, Mr. Mark Kurt Nawaane, has called for an emergency meeting with the leadership of the striking nurses and midwives. Apexnewsgh reports
The Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) declared an indefinite strike on June 2, citing the government’s failure to implement the 2024 Collective Agreement.
The Association argues that the prolonged delay in enforcing the agreement is detrimental to the welfare of its members and undermines the quality of healthcare delivery nationwide. Mr. Nawaane’s call for an emergency meeting aims to find a resolution to the impasse and address the concerns of the striking nurses and midwives.
The meeting would provide a platform for both parties to engage in dialogue and work towards a mutually beneficial solution. With the strike affecting healthcare delivery, finding a resolution is crucial to ensuring the well-being of patients and the healthcare system as a whole.
The indefinite strike by the GRNMA has significant implications for the healthcare sector, with patients facing disruptions in medical care. The emergency meeting called by Mr. Nawaane is a step towards resolving the crisis and restoring normalcy to healthcare services.
