The Trust Hospital, also known as The Trust Hospital Company Limited, is a Ghanaian healthcare facility that used to provide healthcare services to the staff of SSNIT and their dependants.^[1] It was later upgraded to a full-fledged hospital to extend their services to the general public.^[2] The Trust Hospital engages in a number of health screening activities including Breast Cancer Awareness campaigns^[3] for the general public through partnership with other private organizations.^[4]^[5]

History

The Trust Hospital was established in 1992 as a not-for-profit healthcare facility exclusively for SSNIT staff, before eventually becoming a fully-fledged hospital and extended its services to the public.^[6]

The Trust Hospital was incorporated in November 2010 as The Trust Hospital Company Limited in Ghana. The Trust Hospital Company Limited has three hospitals: The Trust Hospital, The Trust Specialist Hospital and the Trust Mother and Child Hospital and six satellite clinics.^[7]

The Trust Hospital appointed Dr. Mrs. Juliana Oye Ameh as its first chief executive officer, since the hospital was broken off from the mother company SSNIT in January 2013.^[8]

The colposcope is a machine that can visualize the cervix and determine changes that are likely to pose a threat to the cervix.^[14]
