Sandra Frimpomaa
@sandrafrimpomaa
Public health program coordinator specializing in disease control and immunization planning.
What I'm looking for
I’m a public health professional with 7+ years coordinating disease control and immunization programs across multiple Ghana Health Service districts. I focus on program planning, monitoring & evaluation, commodity/resource management, and multi-stakeholder coordination between facility, district, and regional levels.
In my current and recent roles, I coordinate disease control and immunization activities, compiling and submitting weekly/monthly performance reports to the Regional Health Directorate. I analyze surveillance data to identify trends and forecast seasonal outbreaks, and I oversee cold chain logistics for immunization delivery while coordinating TB case management across facility teams. I also plan and lead community health education initiatives that engage local stakeholders and leadership.
Concurrently, I serve as a District Program Manager, GHILMIS, where I coordinate procurement, inventory, and distribution of health commodities and manage sub-district purchase orders to track commodities in transit and ensure supply continuity. Earlier, as a Port Health Officer at Kumasi Airport, I supported COVID-19 screening protocols and compiled surveillance data for national tracking. I bring data analysis and reporting skills (Excel, QGIS) and strengthened leadership and M&E capability through training including certificates in Monitoring & Evaluation in Global Health and Leadership & Management in Health.
