NMC SIGNED MoU WITH G- DNA

GHANAIAN-DIASPORA NURSING ALLIANCE (G-DNA) SIGNS MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MoU) WITH THE NURSING AND MIDWIFERY COUNCIL





Ghanaian-Diaspora Nursing Alliance (G-DNA) and the Nursing and Midwifery Council signed a memorandum of understanding on Tuesday, January 9, 2024. The MOU will enable G-DNA to facilitate and support G-DNA members in the diaspora to contribute to advancing Nursing and Midwifery practice in Ghana. The intended purpose of the collaboration is to enhance and advance Nursing practice and to improve healthcare delivery outcomes in Ghana. 

Prof. Yvonne Commodore-Mensah, President of the G-DNA and an Associate Professor at the Johns Hopkins Schools of Nursing and Public Health in Baltimore, in her address to the press, indicated that the G-DNA will mobilize Ghanaian Nurses trained abroad as well as those trained in Ghana and leaving abroad to give back to their mother country.

The MoU will also wave off some requirements for foreign-trained Ghanaian Nurses and Midwives to register with the Council as enshrined in the Part 111 of the HPRBA 2013, Act 857. This is to encourage more diasporan Nurses and Midwives to come home to practice in order to share skills and knowledge acquired abroad.

Dr. Daniel Apau, Co-Director of Education of the G-DNA, stated that there is a huge skill experience in the diaspora which when shared can impact health care delivery in the country.

He also stated that Nursing is the bedrock of healthcare delivery so all health professionals in the country should collaborate to achieve the total health care delivery system in Ghana.

 The Acting Registrar of the Council, Mrs. Philomina Woolley expressed her satisfaction in the MoU, stating that it will help bring back health workers in the diaspora that will help in the Faculties of Universities and Training Institutions.

She also noted that their expertise will be needed in the hospitals, CHIP Compounds, etc and also help in organizing seminars, health talks as well as in research which will in turn help Nursing and Midwifery practice
