Doctor Rapes Nurse At Hospital

A doctor has allegedly raped a nurse in a Ghana hospital. 

A source at Essikado Hospital in the Sekondi Takoradi Metropolis said the doctor (named withheld) invited the trainee nurse who was on night duty on Tuesday evening January 10, to his office and sexually abused her.

The nurse according to the source reported the incident to a senior nursing officer.

Ghana News Agency (GNA) reports that Mr Kusi Boachie, Head of Administration of the Effia-Nkwanta Regional Hospital confirmed the incident and expressed worry about it.

He said, "I am told of a similar rape incident involving the doctor at Sefwi Wiawso and Bibiana District Hospitals and I wonder why such characters are still within our hospitals."

Mr Boachie called on the government and the GHS to take a look into the governance structure of hospitals to ensure efficiency and effectiveness.
