hmmn UCH, that place give me the creeps

Going to public hospital in Nigeria should be added in the list of 1,001 ways to die.

All I can say is that God bless the ever hardworking and dedicated health personnel. I understand some work under duress because if the large number of patients they attend to.

It's Friday 4am I got up, because I was to meet up with my dad friends who will be travelling to visit him, I arrived at the meet up point 5:30am and it was time to move, we started the journey. Approaching ibadan and we started Calling and asking for directions till we finally saw road that leads to the hospital... Driving slowly we diverted into the driveway of UCH (front gate) first thing i Saw was a nurse, probably a student nurse, looking young standing outside looking confused and lost with stains of blood all over his white nurse wear, I started imaging what could have happened, I came to a conclusion that he might have assisted an accident victim that's Why he's stained with blood all over. Still driving in slowly I saw a corpse right at the toll gate of the. emergency, the emergency section have it's own separate drive in gate. There was a dead body right abandoned there, we kept driving in and collected our tag. We where looking for where to park because there was limited parking space, as we kept on driving at a very slow pace, I have never seen so many people unhappy, all I kept seeing were depressed faces and people looking disturbed or subbing and crying or people keeping a straight face with very red eyes. We finally found a place but it's quite far from the hospital wards. I came down and I couldn't imagine how I felt just trying to read and understand what's going on in so many people minds for them to be unhappy or angry. As we started walking towards the wards we pass by the morgue because it's faster to the ward, then I heard a very loud Cry from the voice, he's an elderly person in early 70s. We kept on walking we entered the climbed the first floor and we were going to the 3rd floor. We got there, I saw my mum and hugged her with a sad face on her, same with my brother.

I don't know what you're driving at, but I noticed you didn't show any compassion on that Nurse that soaked herself in a patient's blood. Most stories told by Nigerian patients and relatives are driven by pure selfishness and ignorance about the peculiar nature of the Nigeria system. The nurse with someone's blood stain all over her clothes shows, also, how Nigerian healthcare workers are suffering and working without any form of protection, only to be lashed out at the end by the same patients and their relatives they're taking risks for.
The numerous sad faces and maybe deaths you saw on arrival was mainly because Nigerians patronize those teaching hospitals only when their conditions have become almost irredeemable. They prefer to first go to their pastors/imams, herbalists, or embark on self medication, or poorly equipped and cheap private hospitals, and only go to the teaching hospitals when all hope has been already lost, and yet, expect such hospitals to do miracles.
Which Nigerian goes to the hospitals for check ups when seemingly healthy, as people do abroad? I can swear that the condition that led to your dad vomiting blood didn't start today. Early detection and intervention would have stopped all this stress

Let's wait and see where your story is driving at. So far, I haven't seen anything so shocking, except your lack of compassion on that poor, blood-soaked nurse.

If you are referred to UCH Ibadan, just know that your condition is very terrible. Is either you survive or not because it is 50 50 chance. Also those relatives who will stay with the patient must have power, energy, money, patience etc to face the challenges of the hospital because after all the stress through out the period, you yourself will fall sick.
May God heal those who have sicked and provide for their families to take care of them and forgive those who have died and continue to guide our doctor's and nurses. Amin

I'm using uch as my personal hospital and for check up
They are great I swear, The doctors and nurses have being really good to me.

UCH....... bringing back sad memories

I understand you, but my main point is not really how the health care system is, to be very honest the doctors and nurses in uch ibadan are wonderful set of doctors and very helping, and you're right most cases there are accident victims and critical cases mostly caused by ignorant people and you can't go to uch if you have malaria or typhoid... I will finish the story so you can understand what I'm driving at better. By the way I felt really bad for the nurse

No lie about that, this story is not about the doctors and nurses, but things that are going on there
