She congratulated the awardees and honourees for their achievements and commended the organisers, leadership of the 37 Military Hospital, sponsors, partners and personnel whose contributions contributed to the success of the celebration.

Prof. Dr Ayensu-Danquah also assured the Ghana Armed Forces Medical Services of the Ministry of Health’s continued support for the welfare, training and professional development of military nurses and midwives.

She subsequently declared the 2026 Military Nightingales’ Week Celebration officially closed.
