Kwame Mensah · Oct 1, 2026
Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital has opened a larger paediatric emergency unit to cut waiting times for families across the Ashanti Region.
The new wing doubles the number of emergency beds available for children and adds a dedicated neonatal resuscitation area.
Hospital management said the expansion responds to rising patient numbers from the Ashanti, Bono and Northern regions. Parents at the opening said the change was long overdue.
