School Proprietor Blames Lack of ICU for Deaths of Three Students.
The proprietor of Uncle Rich Preparatory School, Rev. Ekow Richardson, has expressed deep sorrow and frustration over the tragic loss of three students who died following a road accident at Winneba Junction in the Central Region. Rev. Richardson attributes their deaths to the absence of an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and specialist doctors at the Winneba Trauma and Specialist Hospital.
The accident claimed the lives of three pupils and left four others injured. Despite being a trauma center, the hospital’s limited capacity to handle critical cases contributed significantly to the loss of lives, according to Rev. Richardson.
