H4P Organization offers free health screening for Special needs children and care givers for Tetteh-Ocloo State School for the deaf
He said offering free health screenings to pupils, staff, and care givers in special education schools and communities was a step towards ensuring access to quality and affordable healthcare for all.
Mr. Isaac Arthur, the Chief Servant of the Tetteh-Ocloo State School for the Deaf, highlighted the significance of the free health screening for special needs children, addressing dental and eye issues.
He expressed hope for the expansion of the initiative to other special needs schools across Ghana and urged organisations to collaborate with the government in supporting such schools. “Our doors are opened to receive help from any organization. We will only forward letters to the authorities to ensure organisations visit us,” he said. Mr. Arthur appealed to the public to enroll their special needs children in formal education at an early age
