The Member of Parliament for North Dayi, Joycelyn Tetteh Quarshie, has commissioned a newly constructed 4-unit nurses’ quarters at Tsrukpe in the Volta Region, aimed at addressing the persistent accommodation challenges faced by health workers in the area.

Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, Hon. Tetteh Quarshie emphasized the critical role nurses play in the healthcare system and the need to provide them with decent living conditions.
