Eight participants suffered medical emergencies during the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) National Conference and Election held at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.

The National Ambulance Service (NAS), which provided emergency medical support for the event, said its medical teams assessed and stabilised the eight participants before transporting them to the Kumasi South Hospital for further treatment.

Several other participants who required medical attention were treated at the venue and discharged without being referred to a hospital.

The NAS deployed five ambulances and more than 30 Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) to the stadium to provide immediate medical assistance to delegates and other participants throughout the event.

The emergency teams remained on standby until the conference and election ended, after which the ambulances and EMTs returned to their respective stations.

The NAS said the deployment was part of its support for major public events and was aimed at ensuring prompt medical assistance whenever participants required emergency care.
