Buchanan City, Grand Bassa County - The Administrator of the Liberian government hospital in Buchanan says over crowdedness of patients, limited doctors and low financial budget are major challenges slowing the functions of the hospital. The Liberian Government Hospital is the main only public referral hospital in Grand Bassa County, also catering to cases from Rivercess County. He said the hospital has only a medical doctor, who is also helping to train others at the hospital. He then called on the incoming government to prioritize relocating the hospital, providing additional doctors and increasing the budget. “The current budget for the hospital is around US$250,000 which is very small to run this big hospital here in Grand Bassa County ", Bannie said.
