Accra, Nov. 20, GNA - The Ghanaian Battalion in Lebanon has organized another medical and dental care, in Ramia, a community in South Lebanon.
The battalion previously provided medical care to residents of Marwahin, also in Lebanon and has consistently opened its Level One Hospital and other Company Aid Posts to the local residents in Al-Qawzah and other environs.
In all, the Medical team led by the Medical Officer, Captain Daniel Assaki Ndago and the Dentist, Captain Cudjoe Diaba attended to medical and dental cases and some of the beneficiaries included women, children, men and some being Syrian refugees.
The Medical Officer said most of the medical cases were respiratory tract infections, which was due to change in the weather.
Other conditions were referred to the Level One Hospital located at the Battalion Headquarters in Al-Qawah for further management.
Captain Ndago and his team were appreciative of the response and cooperation exhibited by the locals and noted that the furtherance of similar outreaches would help build a better image for GHANBATT and UNIFIL as a whole.
Ms Fatima Jawad a nurse at the only medical facility in the community in an interview said the outreach was the best thing to have happened in their vicinity so far and her people were more than grateful for the kind gesture.
