I doubt if there are generally agreed criteria for ranking or measuring hospitals in a country like Nigeria. My best hospital might be your worse... So,what we should focus more on is- which hospitals offer quality and hitch-free healthcare services in Nigeria? Or we should be more concerned about having the right hospital manage our healthcare needs.

For those who would like to know how to choose the right(or most suitable) hospital,here's is a reader friendly guide you can use:



How To Choose The Right Hospital: 6 Unfailing Steps To Take.

Looking for information on how to choose the right hospital or healthcare provider is a smart decision, because you've got just one life and it's your responsibility to protect and nurture it.

I must commend you for subscribing to HMO package as a way of protecting yourself and your family against health challenges, but I still have to warn you that that is not enough, you still need to carefully select your health managers[hospital].

I may not be able to show you [on this post] every reason why people should carefully choose their healthcare providers, however, I will show you some critical reasons why you [an HMO enrollee] should not choose just any hospital as your healthcare provider, and I will also show you a logical, step-by-step approach to choosing the right hospital.

Critical Reasons Why You Need To Choose Your Hospital Carefully

• Healthcare needs are your most important needs-therefore; your healthcare provider should be carefully selected.

• As an HMO enrollee, you are constrained to choose only one hospital at a time out of a limited number of preselected hospitals.

• Choosing a wrong hospital can really be detrimental-it could cause you irreversible damages.

• Choosing your hospital carelessly might result to decrease in life span.

So, how then can one choose the right hospital?

Here are six unfailing steps to choosing the right hospital:


STEP 1

Consider Proximity:
Make sure the hospital you choose is very close to your house because you or your dependent (family) might one day be in need of urgent medical attention.

Going through stress when you're sick might worsen your condition, remember, sickness is an effect of stress, so it would be unwise to put yourself in a stressful state when ill. Therefore,choosing a hospital that is far from your home is really risky.

Lest I forget, emergencies come without prior notice- it will be detrimental to choose a hospital that is really far from your residence.

STEP 2

Assess The Environment And Facility:


• Ensure the toilets, chairs (or couches) and floors are well tidied- needless to say that diseases and bacteria are easily caught in hospitals.

• Ensure the hospital has good and working alternative sources of power supply

• Make sure water [both for drinking and other use] is available

• Ensure the hospital is fumigated at short intervals- say once every month.

• Make sure the hospital smells nice because unpleasant smell would make you feel uncomfortable throughout your stay.

STEP 3

Assess The Quality Of Services Offered:
You've got just one life, therefore you shouldn't gamble with it by entrusting it to quacks. You have to do your homework diligently before choosing any hospital as your healthcare provider.

Creatively spy the hospital, and ask some patients about their experiences and some quality related questions [remember the old saying "the voice of the people is the voice of God"] but be careful against misleading information.

Here's the complete guide:
