Mr. Akandoh is advocating for a system that allows prospective students to apply from the comfort of their homes, eliminating the need to travel to banks or district capitals to purchase forms.
The Minister expressed concerns that many applicants still have to endure long journeys to access application forms, which he believes is unacceptable in this digital era. “This initiative will significantly ease the burden on parents and applicants, making the process more convenient and inclusive,” he said. Mr. Akandoh is open to developing a new digital admissions platform if that’s what it takes to solve the issue.
Mr. Akandoh emphasized the need for a broader transformation across the health sector, stating, “The resetting agenda begins with all of us. It is a call to duty, and nursing admissions will not be left out.”
He made this call in a meeting with the Principals of nursing training institutions in his office, highlighting the importance of modernizing the admission process to improve accessibility and convenience for applicants.
