The ceremonies brought together the Member of Parliament (MP) for Berekum West, Hon. Dickson Kyere-Duah; the District Chief Executive (DCE), Hon. Collins Asoma; representatives of the District Health Directorate; Assembly staff; chiefs, opinion leaders, residents and religious leaders.
Addressing the gatherings, the DCE, Hon. Collins Asoma, reaffirmed the Assembly's commitment to providing quality healthcare infrastructure for residents, particularly those in communities where access to health facilities had been a challenge.
He said the provision of the CHPS compounds would bring healthcare services closer to the people and reduce the need for residents to travel long distances to access medical attention.
For his part, the MP, Hon. Dickson Kyere-Duah, reiterated his commitment to supporting initiatives aimed at improving healthcare, road infrastructure and other essential services in the district.
He disclosed that the two facilities had been equipped with basic medical equipment and logistics, as well as two staff apartments to accommodate health personnel who would be assigned to the communities.
He added that the compounds had access to water and electricity to ensure effective operations and provide a conducive working environment for the health professionals.
The Senior Public Health Nurse at the Berekum West District Health Directorate, Mr Emmanuel Kwadwo Kpreka, expressed appreciation to the MP and DCE for the facilities, describing them as an important contribution towards improving healthcare delivery in Adom and Pruso.
He assured residents that health personnel assigned to the facilities would dedicate their expertise to disease prevention, health promotion and patient care.
He also pledged that the Directorate would ensure the proper maintenance of the facilities and their equipment to support sustainable healthcare delivery.
The chiefs of Adom and Pruso, together with the Queen Mother of Pruso, expressed excitement over the development and commended the MP and DCE for their efforts towards improving infrastructure and healthcare services in the district.
