APPRECIATION
•
APRIDEC Medical Outreach Group (AMOG) wishes to show their appreciation to the
following for their enormous contribution and support for a successful outreach
programme.
 The Regional Director of Health Services, Regional Health Directorate, Northern
Region, Tamale
 The Medical Superintendent, Gushegu District Hospital, Gushegu, N.R.
 The entire staff of Gushegu District Hospital
 We wish to draw the attention of the hospital administration and the Regional
Director of Health Service to the unfortunate incident that forced us to depart deep in
the night for Tamale and then back to Kumasi the following day in the morning. That
was really scary and we hope it will not happen again. The hospital administration has
not found it necessary to follow up to find out how we fared after that unfortunate
incident. We do not hold it against anyone for what happened and will willing come
back to help the people of Gushegu under normal circumstances. It is the deprived
people in the communities, who cannot get specialist help, that our organization
wants to serve and we do not wish to be involved with the local politics and
politicians.
 We hope to come again when appropriately invited.
Thank you for having us and giving us the opportunity to serve the people.
