The ECG hospital is located in kpandai, a rural community with a population of about 108,816. The hospital carry out emergency operations that need the availability of blood and blood products. Also, antepartum hemorrhage, post partum hemorrhage and anemia cases need urgent transfusion. However we do not have a standard blood bank and our services are hampered by such a deficiency. We are therefore rolling out this project in order to procure a blood bank and refurbish a room for this services
ECG HOSPITAL IS A RURAL BASED FACILITY PROVIDING HEALTH CARE TO THE RURAL POOR. AN ESSENTIAL SERVICES LIKE BLOOD TRANSFUSION WHICH WE CANNOT PROVIDE IS AFFECTING SMOOTH OPERATION OF THE HOSPITAL EVENTHOUGH WE HAVE THE REQUIRED HUMAN RESOURCE TO PROVIDE SUCH SERVICES. MANY PATIENTS THEREFOR DIE OF ANEMIA AND ITS COMPLECATIONS IN THE HOSPITAL OR ARE REFFRRED TO OTHER FACILITIES WHICH BRING UNDUE FINANCIAL AND PYCHOLOGICAL BURDEN ON THE PATIENT AND FAMILY MEMBERS
WE WILL BE ABLE TO PRESERVE BLOOD AND BLOOD PRODUCTS FOR EMERGENCIES SUCH AS CESAREAN SECTIONS, ANTEPARTUM HEMORRHAGE, POST PARTUM HEMORRHAGE AND CORRECT ANEMIAS IN SOME OF OUR PATIENTS IN THE HOSPITAL
THE LONG TERM IMPACT IS QUALITY OF HEALTH CARE TO THE PEOPLE OF KPANDAI AND BEYOUND, AVOIDANCE OF UNNECESSARY DEATHS AND COMPLICATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH BLEEDING DISORDERS. WHEN THE PEOPLE ARE HEALTHY, THEY CAN GO ABOUT THEIR ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES SO THAT POVERTY LEVELS WILL DECREASE.
