The Union of Professional Nurses and Midwives (UPNMG) has urged government to improve the conditions of service of nurses in the country to curtail the exodus of nurses from the country.
According to the Union, the current economic situation in the country is not encouraging nurses to stay and give off their best.
National President of the Union Maxwell Oduro Yeboah at the first-ever meeting of the regional council in Tamale said members of the union remain committed to the service of humanity.
“As a union, we are confident that our members will continue to render the best quality service while we expect government to give better working conditions and services,” he said.
“We shall continue to engage our members who have the intention of leaving the country just as we expect that the economic hardship is lessened.”
UPNMG began operations in 2017 and can already boast of over 15,000 members nationwide, with 4,693 members in the northern region alone.
