Bamenda Regional Hospital gets face-lift

The project initiated by the Director of the Regional Hospital Bamenda, Dr. Kinge Thompson Njie was officially inaugurated by the North West Regional Delegate for Public Health.

Before proceeding to the cutting of the ribbon of the newly constructed Recreational Garden, North West Regional Delegate for Public Health described the piece as attractive edifice that will go along way boost the image of the hospital.

“I think this is one of the rare opportunities I have had to inaugurate such an attractive piece of work”, Dr. Ndiforcho Victor continued. He congratulated the Director of the Regional Hospital Bamenda for the initiative and added that every visitor or patient that visits or is leaving the hospital will also feel happy after seeing the edifice.

To Dr. Ndiforcho Victor, Health is not the mere absence of illness that is why those who provide health services are supposed to be in state of wellbeing. The Recreational Garden, Dr. Ndiforcho concluded has changed the face of the hospital.

On his part the initiator of the project Dr. Kinge Thompson Njie said that the entire staff of the Regional Hospital, Bamenda believes that a clean environment prepared to receive patients will go a long way to express more meaning to the adage that patients are Kings and Queens.

“We are convinced that patients have rights and they deserve our attention. They deserve our love, protection, sympathy, sacrifice and they deserve an environment worthy of their status as Kings and Queens”.

He reassured the public that the hospital is committed to remain in alignment with the strong instructions from the Honourable Minister of Public Health to offer quality health services without any form of discrimination.

Dr. Kinge used the opportunity to announce that the Regional Hospital will on Saturday be receiving an award from the Watchdog Tribune as North West Best Public Service Hospital of the year 2014.

This added is a very heart-warming and proof of the fact that the Regional Hospital Bamenda has made positive strides. He expressed thanks and appreciation to North West Governor, the regional delegate for Public Health and the administration of the region for the encouragement.

Dr. Kinge used the opportunity to present the gardener and the builder who did the job. The flowers were planted by Feh Fobang Emmanuel while construction work was done by Chi Roland.
