Adankraja CHIPs compound, Bekwai in the Ashanti Region

Background of Project
The Adankraja CHIPs compound was started in 2014 by the people of Adankraja to ensure survival of babies and mothers during pregnancy delivery and after childbirth as well as bringing health care delivery to the door steps of the community. The Trust fund equipped the CHIPs compound with medical equipment.

Status of the Project
At the time of monitoring exercise, the Chief of the community and the project coordinator were out of town. However, the Team was able to meet and speak with the Queen Mother and some representatives in the community. The Team was taken round to inspect the project. It was noted that, though the project had been fully completed, nurses were yet to be engaged to attend to  patients of the facility 24/7. The delay in engaging the nurses was as a result of lack of  accommodation to permanently house these would-be nurses of the facility. Secondly, the Team also learnt that the building structure of the CHIP Compound was yet to be connected to the electricity.

Access into the Completed Facility
Due to the absence of the Chief and the project coordinator (the head of Youth Network for Human Right Democracy ), the Monitoring Team could not have access into the completed facility to ascertain whether CHIP compound was indeed equipped  with medical equipment.
