The Lordina Foundation has donated essential medical equipment to the Techiman North constituency, targeting healthcare delivery gaps in rural areas as part of efforts to modernize under-resourced health facilities across Ghana.

First Lady Mrs. Lordina Dramani Mahama personally handed over the medical supplies to Member of Parliament and Minister for Trade, Agribusiness and Industry, Elizabeth Ofosu-Agyare, during a presentation ceremony Monday.

The donation addresses critical healthcare infrastructure needs in Techiman North, where residents have faced challenges accessing quality medical services due to inadequate equipment and facilities.

The donated items place heavy emphasis on maternal and child healthcare, including delivery beds, incubators, phototherapy machines, baby scales, baby cots, and baby carts. Hospital beds, theatre lights, wheelchairs, and medical trolleys complete the package.

“This contribution from the Lordina Foundation will play a key role in bridging gaps in our healthcare system,” said MP Ofosu-Agyare, expressing gratitude on behalf of Techiman North residents.

The equipment donation reflects the Foundation’s targeted approach to supporting vulnerable populations, particularly women and children in rural and semi-urban areas who often lack access to specialized medical care.

Mrs. Mahama said the donation demonstrates the Foundation’s commitment to addressing healthcare inequities between urban and rural areas.

“We are dedicated to contributing to the development of deprived children and women in both rural and urban areas, focusing on quality healthcare promotion, education, and overall well-being,” the First Lady stated.

The Techiman North donation represents part of the Foundation’s broader mission to strengthen healthcare facilities in underserved communities where government resources may be stretched thin.

The handover creates a partnership model between the Foundation and government representatives, with the MP serving as the link between the donated equipment and local health facilities.

“This donation shows our belief in collaborative efforts to foster sustainable development within Ghana’s health sector,” Mrs. Mahama added.

The approach allows the Foundation to work directly with elected officials who understand their constituencies’ specific healthcare needs and can ensure proper

The comprehensive equipment package addresses multiple aspects of healthcare delivery, from basic patient care items like hospital beds and wheelchairs to specialized equipment such as theatre lights and phototherapy machines for newborn care.

Items donated include hospital and theatre beds, delivery beds, incubators, theatre lights, phototherapy machines, baby scales, syringes and gloves, trolleys, wheelchairs, commodes, baby baths, bedside cabinets, overhead tables, and medical screens.
