The Greater Accra Regional Hospital has set up special isolation rooms for expectant mothers.
This is because pregnant women are shying away from visiting the hospital over fears of contracting COVID-19.
The authorities at the hospital said the creation of these isolation rooms is to protect pregnant women.
Dr Kwabena Omari Yeboah acting head of the Gynaecology department of the hospital says the new protocols will see all pregnant women safe.
"Don't stay home with the fear that when you visit the hospital you will contract COVID-19 because we have put some measures in place to protect pregnant women because you can't postponed pregnancy".
Dr. Emmanuel Srofenyoh the Director of the Greater Accra Regional Hospital says the facility is ready to even accommodate pregnant mothers who test positive for COVID-19.

Meanwhile, the Ashanti Regional President of the GMA, Dr Paa Kwesi Baidoo has warned of a looming danger at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital.
He said keeping COVID-19 patients at the main wards of the hospital poses a greater risk to other patients
Currently, the KATH – Ghana’s second-largest referral facility – admits Covid-19 patients but they are being kept at main wards due to inadequate space.
Speaking to Luv FM Dr Baidoo said the hospital is now admitting Covid-19 patients at the Accident and Emergency Unit, and that should not be the case.
He fears the situation could result in an increase in positive cases and without an adequate facility to cater for them, patients who are already receiving treatment for separate conditions, could get infected and lose their lives.
