About the centre

A medical centre built round the patients everyone else rushes

Regal has looked after older families in Accra since 2009. This is who we are, how the place runs, and what we will not compromise on.

Compassionate care for elders

Everyday nursing that keeps people at home for longer

Regal exists because most older people in Accra do not want a hospital. They want their own room, their own bed and somebody who already knows which of the four tablets is the one they keep forgetting.

01

One named nurse

Every family on a plan has a nurse whose name they know and whose number they have. Not a rota, not a call centre — the same person, week after week, who notices when something is different.

02

The plan is written down

You get the plan on paper with the monthly figure on it before anything starts. If what is needed changes, we stop and talk first. Nobody at this centre adds to a bill without a conversation.

03

The whole family is told

Notes go out at the end of every month — observations, medicines, weight, anything that moved. The daughter in Kumasi and the son in London get the same page on the same day.

Why we opened

A place to grow old that is neither a ward nor an empty house

In 2009 the choice facing most families in Accra was a hospital bed they could not afford to keep or a house where nobody came. Dr. Regal-Adjei had spent eleven years watching the second option send people back to the first. The centre was built to be the thing in between — and everything about how it runs, from the length of a first appointment to who gets the monthly notes, follows from that one decision.

Care that grows with you

We champion better health for older Ghanaians

Ageing in Accra should not mean choosing between a ward you cannot leave and a house nobody visits. We built the third option, and we have been refining it since 2009.
