List Of Hospitals & Clinics Built By Ghana’s Colonial Masters: High death rates were mostly caused by infectious diseases in pre-colonial Ghana and other African nations. Read on to learn clearly how the contemporary health system contributes to the saving of lives through the list of hospitals built by the colonial overlords or masters in Ghana.
But the colonial master’s contribution to contemporary health history in Ghana was a game-changer, with significant input from foreign players including Christian missionaries, European colonisers, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund.
Additionally, the introduction of democracy into Ghana’s political structure sparked changes in the healthcare system in an effort to combat the prevalence of contagious and non-communicable diseases. This ultimately led to the creation of the current National Health Insurance Scheme. This helps Ghanaians to visit government and some private hospitals for free.
In this article, GHJ will list all regional list of hospitals built by the colonial masters in Ghana.

Roles And Benefits Of Hospitals Built By The Colonial Masters In Ghana
It is impossible to overstate the importance and relevance of the hospitals the Colonial Masters constructed in Ghana. Even though we are already aware of what hospitals stand for, it doesn’t hurt to reiterate these principles.
The Hospital is an essential and necessary component of a social and medical organisation whose purpose is to provide appropriate and fast health treatment to the nation’s people. Specifically, this includes both curative and preventive treatment, and moreover, the hospital serves as a hub for health professional training and social research.
Who Built The First Hospital In Ghana?
Sir Frederick Gordon Guggisberg
On October 9, 1923, Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Ghana’s top tertiary healthcare centre, was founded. Under Sir Frederick Gordon Guggisberg, who was the Governor of the Gold Coast at the time, the institution was constructed as a General Hospital to meet the requirements of the local populace.
What Is The Oldest Hospital In Ghana?
Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital Korle-Bu gained teaching hospital status in 1962 when the University of Ghana Medical School (UGMS) was established for the training of medical doctors.
