Doctor lauded for teaching BECE candidate in ward

January 28, 2019

When young patient, Caleb Giftan, insisted on taking his books to the hospital ward, little did he know that he will get a qualified medical doctor to teach him General Science.

Caleb’s family had become worried after he started complaining of pain in his left leg one afternoon in November 2018 upon returning from school.

The family initially resorted to finding supernatural remedies as they suspected the ‘mysterious illness’ to be a case of a spiritual attack.

As the condition of the final year junior high school pupil worsened, he was rushed to the LEKMA Hospital in Teshie, Accra, for treatment on January 15.

While on admission, he asked his mother to get him his text books, a request which was duly granted him to the admiration of Dr. Eleanor Naa Norkor Light, who volunteered to help him in his revisions.

Impressed by the 14-year-old’s love for his books in spite of his condition, Dr. Light used her free times to take him through some topics in General Science and Mathematics, while calming his nerves with words of encouragement.

The elder brother of Caleb, Abdul Salam, who shared photos of the doctor and his brother on social media, expressed gratitude to management, staff as well as doctors and nurses of LEKMA Hospital for their professionalism and dedication to service.

He said, amid several criticisms of Ghana’s healthcare system, the sacrifice of some workers must not be overlooked since it helps in improving both the physical and psychological well-being of patients.

Mr. Salam said he is hopeful that his brother, who now moves around in a wheel chair after losing control of his lower limbs, will recover in time to join his mates in school.

Now discharged, Caleb, a pupil of Manle Dada JHS in Accra, says his situation keeps improving by the day and hopes to be in good shape for the upcoming exam, which has been rescheduled for June 10 -14, instead of an earlier date, June 3 – 7.

The Ghana Education Service, in a statement last year urged heads of basic schools to take notice of the revised date and prepare candidates accordingly.

Over 500,000 registered candidates are expected to sit for this year’s BECE organised by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC).
