Ga West Municipal Hospital, Amasaman – On this International Day of the Midwife, May 5, 2025, we pause to recognize and celebrate the incredible work of our midwives—those who stand at the frontlines of maternal and newborn health, offering not just medical care, but comfort, courage, and compassion to mothers and families.
At Ga West Municipal Hospital, our midwives are more than just healthcare professionals. They are caregivers, educators, advocates, and trusted companions through one of life’s most profound journeys—childbirth. Their commitment to excellence, even in the face of challenges, is nothing short of extraordinary.
Whether guiding a first-time mother through labor or providing postpartum care and education, our midwives consistently go above and beyond. Their skillful hands have welcomed thousands of babies into the world, and their nurturing presence has provided strength and hope during moments of vulnerability.
This year’s theme, “Midwives: Critical in Every Crisis,” deeply resonates with our experience here at Ga West. Through public health emergencies, staffing shortages, and limited resources, our midwives have shown unwavering resilience. They remain committed to their calling, offering safe, respectful, and life-saving care day and night.
To our midwives: thank you. Thank you for your sleepless nights, your steady hands, your calming words, and your enduring patience. Your role in our hospital and community is invaluable, and today, we celebrate you wholeheartedly.
Let us all take a moment today to extend our gratitude to these silent heroes who ensure that life begins with dignity and care.
Happy International Day of the Midwife!
From the Management and Staff of Ga West Municipal Hospital.
