The Anambra State Hospital Administrator, Dr. Frank Ifeanaeme, has called on hospitals, healthcare providers and members of the public to patronise the medical oxygen plant at General Hospital, Enugwu-Ukwu, describing its products as affordable, accessible and suitable for medical use.
Dr. Ifeanaeme made the appeal on Nov. 6, during an inspection visit to the facility to assess its operations and level of patronage.
He disclosed that the plant produces medical oxygen with a purity level of 95 per cent and operates round the clock to ensure a steady supply for patients and healthcare facilities requiring oxygen support.
The hospital administrator encouraged hospitals and other healthcare providers to take advantage of the facility, noting that its affordable services could help improve access to quality medical oxygen.
He cautioned healthcare facilities against using or supplying substandard medical oxygen, warning that poor quality oxygen could put patients’ lives at risk, urging them to source their supplies from the government owned plant to ensure that patients receive appropriate medical care.
During the visit, Dr. Ifeanaeme inspected the hospital’s maternity section, where he reassured expectant mothers of the Anambra State Government’s commitment to providing free delivery services in public hospitals across the state.
He reaffirmed that the initiative covers pregnant women seeking maternity care in government owned health facilities, encouraging expectant mothers to take advantage of the programme.
The visit highlights the state’s efforts to strengthen public healthcare services, improve access to essential medical supplies and reduce the financial burden of healthcare on residents.
