Health News of Friday, 21 May 2021Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe Ghana Federation of Allied Health Professionals (GFAHP) has described the posting of physicians to work in medical laboratories as an attempt to disturb the peace and tranquillity in the country. “The attempt to undermine the Health Professions Regulatory Bodies (HPRB) Act, 2013, Act 857 and Allied Health Professions Council (AHPC), will be resisted by all allied health professionals in this country. The role and job description of physicians are clearly defined under part two, section 50 of Act 857. “Additionally, nowhere did the Act mention that Physicians or any other person can walk into any medical laboratory to practice. Ghanaians should hold GMA responsible for any disturbances in the health sector,” the statement read.
