Challenges and Recommendation
• Lack of funding• Ignorance of the disease and of awareness resulted in the low
turn up• lack of decentralization of the screening exercise limited the
number of women.Recommendation Seek donor agency to support the awareness and breast
screening in various villages. Seeking funding to organise the oncology training for the
midwives in the municipality hence more qualified nurse could provide such service to women leaving outside Assin Fosu.
