Begoro (E/R), Dec. 5, GNA - The Fanteakwa District Health Management Team (DHMT) had urged the Ghana Health Service (GHS) to draw a comprehensive programme to retrain Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs) on midwifery practices to enable them perform effectively.
The Asrebuso-Sub District Health Officer, Miss Millicent Yirenkyi, made the call in her report at the quarterly performance review meeting of the DHYMT) at Begoro on Friday.
