The management of the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH) has denied reports suggesting that it had suspended emergency surgeries at the surgical department due to broken down elevators.
It explained that despite ongoing repair works on the elevators at the Department of Surgery, all surgical emergencies and urgent cases were being attended to prominently.
Additionally, those who were already on admission due for surgery were being attended to.
A news release dated August 29, 2024 and issued by the management of the hospital, therefore, urged patients and the public to disregard the “misleading information” suggesting that emergency surgeries have been suspended.
“It is untrue because despite ongoing repair work on the elevators at the Department of Surgery, all surgical emergency and urgent cases are being attended to promptly,” the release said.
