The Executive Secretary, Anambra State Primary Healthcare Development Agency, ASPHCDA, Pharmacist Chisom Uchem has extolled Governor Chukwuma Soludo for his special interest in health matters as he fights for the pursuit of attaining a better Anambra State healthcare system.
Pharm Uchem stated this during the commissioning of Primary Healthcare Centre Ezike Onyirioha Unit, Umuka Osumenyi in Nnewi South Local Government Area.
She thanked the Governor for the ongoing recruitment of healthcare workers into the Primary Healthcare system in the State, as a PHC complex without the needed workforce would be an empty building with nothing happening in it.
According to Pharmacist Uchem, the new facility already has staff posted, but if there is need for more staff in the facility, more will be posted as the Governor has made that possible with the recruitment of more healthcare workers.
The Executive Secretary, also commended the state Commissioner for Health, Dr Afam Obidike for his doggedness in ensuring that the State Healthcare sector has a working system.
According to her, suggestion boxes will soon be in all PHCs across the State, where one can easily make complaints if not treated right in a health facility and commended the PHC Director in Nnewi South for her efforts in coordinating Primary Healthcare activities in the Local Government Area and for seeing to the success of the PHC Commissioning.
She, then, called for active community involvement and participation in the PHC whilst praying for it to be a place where people who come to receive care would get better from their health challenges.
A representative of the Community’s Caretaker Committee, Mr Sebastian Okonkwo Eze expressed gratitude to the Agency for its attentiveness and dedication in piloting the affairs of the Primary Healthcare activities across the State.
The PHC Director in Nnewi South, Mrs Anthonia Nwachukwu thanked the ASPHCDA team and all present for making out time to attend the event, and prayed for journey mercies to their various destinations.
Highlight of the event was the official handover of the PHC to Anambra State Primary Healthcare Development Agency.
Present at the event was the Director Disease Control and Immunization in the agency, Dr Nnamdi Uliagbafusi.
