For more than a decade HopeXchange Medical Centre has been one of the beneficiaries and a partner of the American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA) grant program of USAID.

Through this unique partnership HopeXchange became a premiere hospital endowed with state-of-the-art American technology and expertise. It proudly serves Ghana with an American inspired tripartite approach in clinical care, medical education and translational research.

USA leading faculty members from Yale University, Mayo Clinic and others are actively involved in research, transfer of knowledge and American inspired hospital Standard Operation Practices (SOP's). This has made HopeXchange a hub of medical training for the whole region. ASHA also facilitates taking critical medical assistance to remote areas.

A crowning achievement of the ASHA/USAID partnership is the construction of state-of-the-art Maternal and Child Health Centre (MCHC) which when completed will contribute immensely to the provision of needed health care for mothers and children especially, neonates in the country.

The centre will also advance the training of health care professionals and students in maternal and child health.

Through the generous support of ASHA/USAID, HopeXchange will soon take delivery of a mobile clinic to augment its medical outreach. The mobile clinic is a major investment in the health and well-being of the entire region.

This mobile clinic will enable HopeXchange to reach underserved and remote communities, particularly those who are poor, needy, and vulnerable, ensuring that no one is left behind due to distance or lack of access.

HopeXchange extends a heartfelt appreciation to the U.S. government and people for the remarkable contribution to the Ghana health sector through ASHA/USAID grants.
