The Government of Ghana has congratulated nurses on the occasion of International Nurses day today.

This year’s celebration is on the theme “Nursing the World to Health”

Addressing Tuesday’s Press Briefing in Accra Information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah said the sacrifices and efforts made by nurses in nation-building cannot be underemphasized.

“The commemoration of the day comes at a time when the role of the nurse needs no further highlighting. As you are aware, we are in the mix of a pandemic and the nurse is an instrumental figure in this fight. From contact tracing, triaging hospitals to care for the sick, and follow up on those who have even recovered, the Ghanaian nurse has been a strong soldier in this battle.” He said
