The New Juaben North Municipal Hospital, a key project under the immediate past government’s Agenda 111 initiative, is set to become operational on March 3, 2025.

The 40-bed hospital, fully furnished and equipped, was commissioned by President Nana Akufo-Addo on December 5, 2024, but has remained closed since then.

Residents were worried about delays in operationalizing the hospital.

However, a visit to the facility on Tuesday, February 25, revealed painters and technicians putting the final touches in preparation for its official opening to the public.

The hospital boasts state-of-the-art facilities, including an outpatient department, X-ray unit, theatre, maternity ward, laboratory, and pharmacy.

Nana Yaa Konadu, the New Juaben North Municipal Health Director, confirmed that staff posted to the facility have undergone training.

“As a matter of fact, our 40-bed capacity New Juaben North Municipal Hospital so far as we speak is 100% complete. We’ve had staff training on equipment and how to use the facility. What we are left now is training for the use of the X-ray, scan machines, and anaesthetic machines.”



She added "A week away from today we are going to start with the OPD operations and then gradually we cascade to the in-patient. As we speak, the team is in place with the equipment, everything is set and for us, it is just some administrative work. We hope that by the 3rd of March, we will be able to kick off.”

The Municipal Health Director assured residents of quality healthcare delivery once the hospital becomes operational.

The New Juaben North Municipal Hospital is among the first Agenda 111 hospitals to be operationalized.
