Ministry Of Health Processes Salaries Of Pharmacists Who Completed Housemanship And Assures 2024 Rotation Nurses And Allied Health Interns Of Imminent Payment

1. The Ministry of Health has successfully processed salary payments for 321 Pharmacist House Officers who completed their housemanship in 2024, marking a significant step toward addressing outstanding financial obligations within the sector.

2. The Ministry acknowledges the concerns of the 2024 batch of Rotation Nurses and Allied Health Interns, who began in May 2024 and completed their rotations in May 2025 but have not yet received their salaries. This delay stems from the inability of the previous government to secure the necessary financial clearance for these interns before the commencement of their rotations.

3. The Ministry is actively working with the relevant government agencies to prioritise and expedite the clearance process to ensure the timely disbursement of all outstanding salaries.

4. This effort reflects the Ministry's broader commitment to resolving salary arrears across all health worker categories and ensuring that every qualified professional is supported in delivering essential healthcare services to Ghanaians.

5. We wish to reassure all affected Rotation Nurses and Allied Health Interns that their concerns are being addressed as a matter of urgency. The Ministry is also taking steps to implement a sustainable system that prevents such delays in the future.
