Korle Bu closes main surgical theatre for renovation
Authorities at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital have
announced that the main surgical theatre would be
shut down for renovation from Wednesday, July 17,
2013.

A statement signed by Mustapha Salifu, Public
Relations Officer of the hospital, said the
renovation works on the theatre will start
immediately and is expected to be completed by the
end of October, 2013.

“The work is part of the on-going major
retooling of the Hospital being funded by the
Government through the Ministry of Health.”

Due to this, the statement said, only urgent and
emergency surgical cases will be attended to in
alternative theatres in the Hospital.

“Patients who have been previously given
appointments for surgery should bear with their
doctors when they are rescheduled, as this
refurbishment will result in improvements to
theatre services, provided by the Hospital,” it
said, adding We deeply apologise for any
inconvenience this action will cause our patients
and clients.”
