In order to stop the migration of nurses leaving the country, the Union of Professional Nurses and Midwives (UPNMG) has urged the government to improve the working conditions for nurses in the nation.
The Union claims that the nation’s present economic climate does not motivate nurses to remain and offer their all.
At the first meeting of the regional council in Tamale, Union national president Maxwell Oduro Yeboah reaffirmed the union’s members’ commitment to serving mankind.
“As a union, we are confident that our members will continue to render the best quality service while we expect government to give better working conditions and services,” he said.
“We shall continue to engage our members who have the intention of leaving the country just as we expect that the economic hardship is lessened.”
Since its founding in 2017, UPNMG has grown to include over 15,000 members nationwide, with 4,693 of those members located in the northern area alone.
