Nyaho Medical Centre has been recognized for its outstanding contribution to Ghana’s economic development during the nation’s 60 years of independence.
The medical facility was honoured together with other institutions for their significant contribution to national progress at the Diamond Jubilee Business & Financial Services excellence Ghana @ 60 Jubilee Awards in Accra.
Receiving the award in the category of Total Healthcare, Dr. Eikem Tamaklo, Managing Director of Nyaho Medical Centre mentioned that the award was a confirmation of the rich heritage being built on to ensure that the hospital remains relevant in the next 60 years delivering innovative healthcare solutions not only to residents in Ghana, but to attain its vision of being Africa’s most trusted name in healthcare.
