Professor Otchere Addai-Mensah leaves his job as head of Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital next week. He met with Health Minister Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, who thanked him for his excellent work. The government praised him for making the hospital better and improving healthcare. Akandoh expressed personal thanks for the care he received at KATH after his accident last year. Officials will name a replacement soon.
Addai-Mensah started his role in November 2022 and departs with two years left on his contract. People see his time at KATH as very successful because he led major renovations through the Hekap Project. He created new training programs for staff and managers at the hospital. The number of dialysis machines grew from just two when he arrived to about twenty today. He also built a modern pharmaceutical building.
His work focused on improving buildings, bringing new ideas, and ensuring good patient care. Many consider him one of the most effective healthcare leaders in Ghana. His changes to the hospital will continue helping patients long after he leaves.
