Tanoso Health Nursing Training College cries for more infrastructure

Inadequate lecture halls are negatively affecting academic progress at the Tanoso Community Health Nursing Training College in the Tano North Municipality of the newly created Ahafo region. 

Though the college is constructing new lecture rooms through its Internally Generated Fund which is about 90 percent complete, authorities say work is gradually grinding to a halt due to lack of funding. 

Ms Elizabeth Wife, the Principal of the college appealed for support from civil society, organizations and corporate bodies for the completion of the project to facilitate effective teaching and learning. 

Addressing the 16th Matriculation ceremony to officially admit 250 fresh students, Ms Wiafe said  the college population was increasing hence the need for more lecture rooms.  The new students have been indexed by the Nursing and Midwifery Council. 

She expressed worry over lack of students hostel on campus, which invariably endangered the lives of students who were constantly attacked and robbed by unknown people when returning from preps. 

Ms Wiafe said the situation is also making supervision of students difficult for the college authorities. 

She expressed gratitude to Mrs Freda Prempeh, the Member of Parliament for Tano North for whose efforts had led to the construction of one storey hostel, which is on-going in the school. 

Ms Wiafe said fenced wall ought to be constructed around the college which had a student population of 608 peole to improve on internal security. 

The fence wall would not only deter students from leaving campus without authorization but also prevent miscreants who enter the campus through its many porous borders from harassing female students. 

Ms Wiafe expressed worry that the college was struggling to complete the Assembly hall project initiated by the Student's Representative Council which had become standstill. 

She said the college would soon migrate from manual to online examination saying support was also needed to complete two-storey building of which would contain ICT center, skills laboratory and and a library. 

Mrs Wiafe expressed the hope that with the support from the general public the ground floor would be completed before the beginning of the 2019/2020 academic year to kick start the online examination. 

She reminded the students that the college would not tolerate any form of indiscipline, and enjoined them to respect and obey the rules and regulations of the college. 

Mrs Eva Aryee, the Tano North Municipal Director of Health, told the students nursing is not only a noble profession, but a divine call as well, and advised them to build themselves academically, socially and spiritually to serve humanity well. 

She advised particularly female students to concentrate on their books and shun immoral behaviour that could truncate their education and ruin their future. 
 
Awards were presenting to deserving teaching and  non teaching staff for their hard their work.
