The management of the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital has assured the public that normal operations at its mortuary will resume soon, as refurbishment works near completion.
The hospital, which is Ghana’s largest referral medical facility, had earlier issued a directive on February 3, 2025, temporarily suspending the acceptance of dead bodies and Brought-in-Dead (BID) cases to facilitate renovation efforts at the mortuary.
Providing an update on the situation, the Head of Public Relations at Korle Bu, Mustapha Salifu, told Citi News on Monday, March 10, that contractors are still working on the refurbishment, but progress has been steady.
