Healthcare is a basic human right though it is often described as expensive to many. In a bid to achieve quality healthcare and also goal three of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), there is the need to invest in Primary Health Care (PHC) as a key area to promote quality healthcare. Here in Ghana, one of governments’ key strategies to achieve quality healthcare as far as Primary Health Care is concerned is the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS). Primary Healthcare is basically the little, yet important things we do to improve our health and by so doing, save ourselves from malaria, cholera, and other related diseases. Some of these include; the regular and proper use of treated mosquito nets, food nutrition, proper sanitation, hand washing and several others.
In spite of the above mentioned, the common, affordable and simple way to achieve primary healthcare is proper hand washing which is the least thing that comes to mind and often disregarded by many.Despite its critical role, it appears most people even do not know its importance irrespective of the education done by CSOs, NGOs and government. In January 2017, I conducted a research on hand washing in La – a community said to have recorded the highest number of cholera cases in 2014.

Revelation! #1

Revelation; the word with many interpretation. To the Driver, revelation is something new and strange he comes up with when driving. To the Doctor, revelation is what he or she sees during an experiment or carrying out his work. The Pastor will also define it as what is seen in the realms of spirit. Well, I have a different view on that.
