''This article highlights a part of the path towards the establishment of the Ministry of Health in Ghana and the Sanitary Branch’s role in the process.'' The Sanitary Branch of Ghana, established in 1910, was formed as a branch of the country’s Medical Department when Ghana was a colony under the British. Today, the Ministry of Health in Ghana works to improve the health of the nation’s citizens through the formulation of policies and introduction of programs aimed at promoting and increasing accessibility to health care. It functions in conjunction with the Ghanaian government, and overall works toward the continual development of the nation as a whole.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.moh-ghana.org/home.aspx )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.who.int/countryfocus/cooperation_strategy/ccsbrief_gha_en.pdf )〕 The beginnings of a national health care system, currently in the form of the Ministry of Health, can be traced to the late 1800s and early 1900s. The British influence in Ghana marked the beginnings of a structured health care system with the implementation of the Medical Department, which included the formation of the Sanitary Branch. ==Purpose and Main Objectives== The original purpose of the Sanitary Branch, as part of the Medical Department, was to protect the Europeans living in the British West African colonies from becoming infected with and dying from tropical diseases, especially after the mass fear following the outbreak of the bubonic plague. The branch soon worked to protect the Ghanaian people as well, instilling sanitation reforms and offering vaccinations for the people of the colony. It also worked to instigate accessibility to clean and drinkable water, combat the infestation of mosquitoes, increase awareness about the maintenance of good health, and deal with the outbreak of epidemics.
