Enchi Mortuary and Others Closed for Violations

The Mortuaries and Funeral Facilities Agency has closed the Enchi Government Hospital Mortuary. Other facilities in the Western North Region were also affected.

These closures happened because the facilities broke rules set by the agency. The Mortuaries and Funeral Facilities Agency is responsible for making sure these places are safe and clean.

Francis Ennin, who is the Registrar of the MoFFA, was in charge of the inspections. He led a team to check different mortuaries in the region. The goal was to ensure they were following all required standards.

During the checks, problems were found at the Enchi Government Hospital Mortuary. The exact nature of these violations was not fully detailed but involved agency regulations.

The agency's work is important for public health. Properly managed mortuaries prevent the spread of diseases and ensure respectful handling of bodies.

The temporary closure means these facilities cannot operate until they fix the issues. MoFFA expects them to meet the required standards before reopening.

This compliance operation aims to uphold professional standards across all funeral facilities in Ghana.
