Fellow Ghanaians: The hospitals we have to be ashamed of

Fellow Ghanaians, there is a particular kind of cruelty in being sick. You are already vulnerable, already frightened, already at the mercy of a body that has stopped cooperating with you, and all you want, all any human being in that condition wants, is to be taken somewhere safe, somewhere clean, somewhere staffed with people who have the tools and the resources to help you fight your way back. That is the basic, minimum expectation of a hospital. It's not about luxury. Just a bit of excellence. Just the basic, fundamental assurance that the place you have been brought to is better equipped to save your life than the floor of your own home.
