[ads1]According to them, they were first Nurses to have completed training without trainee allowance and have paid huge sums of monies as school fees and have rendered 40% health care service delivery to mother Ghana during their training without remuneration.
They are calling on the Government to compensate their batch with immediate postings warning their continue being home is dangerous for the job should they find their way into the filed at later.
“Our continues stay at home is more harmful and can lead to more harm if we find ourselves in the facilities some day after staying longer without practicing”
According to them, regardless of the promise by H.E president Nana Addo, they are still left unemployed.
They said government’s silence on their postings have ignited anxiety, frustration, and suffering among them.
They revealed that the 2016 batch of the Nurse Assistant Clinical (NAC) and the Nurse Assistant Preventive(NAP) have over total population of over six thousand graduates.
Some of the aggrieved graduates at a press conference said they are not happy staying in the house for a decade without been posted to the various health institutions.
A graduate, Matilda Aseidu said they have petitioned the Ministry of Health several times, and nothing fruitful had come out from the petition adding that they were saddened to hear from the Deputy Minister for Health, Hon Tina Gifty Mensah mentioning that they were not bounded.
On behalf of the aggrieved graduates, Madam Matilda, however, gave one-week ultimatum to immediately post them, else they will converge at the ministry of health till their demands are meet.
