Nigeria Needs Basic Health Care by Deep4321(m): 8:32am On Jun 13, 2013
Dear All,

Greetings from India!

I would like to have your inputs on the aforesaid topic. It can help us to come up with some much needed healthcare plans in Nigeria.

I would request to each and everyone in Nairaland to participate in this topic and help us to improve and also to reach to those who dont have medical access in Nigeria.

I agree with u. Primary healthcare services are very poor. Most private hospitals are running secondary care instead of basic care. Infact 80% of health problems can be handled in good basic healthcare facilities. Presently i am thinking of starting a comprehensive healthcare services business with focus on early diagnosis and treatment of common diseases using point of care testing, portable ecg machine, doppler uss etc.

Yes, You are right and we need more people who should think of coming up with diagnostics centre. I have heard many stories where a patient goes to different places and being diagnosed differently and ends up traveling overseas. I strongly feel we need to put an efforts to make primary health care strong in Nigeria so that poor people who do not have medical access can be taken care of.. All doctors who are running one specialty hospitals should put joint efforts to come up with multi specialty hospital, will help patients getting treatment done under one roof rather going to one place to another.
