Overview
Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, the premier tertiary healthcare facility in Ghana, was established on October 9, 1923. The facility was built under the administration of Sir Frederick Gordon Guggisberg, then, the Governor of the Gold Coast, as a General Hospital to attend to the health needs of the people. Korle Bu, in the local Ga parlance means ‘the valley of the Korle Lagoon’. Currently, the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, which is the third biggest referral centre in Africa has 2,000 beds, 21 clinical and diagnostic departments and three Centres of Excellence. It also has an average outpatient attendance of 1,500 with about 250 inpatient admissions. There are three Centres of Excellence in the Hospital, namely, the National Cardiothoracic Centre, the National Reconstructive Plastic Surgery and Burns Centre and the National Centre for Radiotherapy and Nuclear Medicine. These Centres attract a sizeable number of clients within the country and from neighbouring countries such as Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Togo and Benin among others. The hospital sets out to meet and exceed the patients’ expectation of care and at all times treat them with dignity and respect.
