Outpatients left in limbo as Korle Bu’s renal unit attends to inpatients only

The Renal Unit at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital has been made available exclusively to inpatients, despite earlier announcements that outpatients would also have access.

This decision has left kidney patients feeling uncertain and frustrated.

The Renal Patients Association is calling on the hospital to open the facility to outpatients, allowing them to receive the essential care they need.

A recent visit to the renal department at KBTH revealed that while inpatients are being treated, outpatients still cannot access the dialysis center.

Kojo Baffour Ahenkora, a spokesperson for the Renal Patients Association, voiced concern about the lack of official communication regarding when the facility will be available to outpatients.

Despite these challenges, Ahenkora remains hopeful that the hospital will soon extend its services to outpatients.
