Why?Are they the owners of the hospitals?They are mere employees.

Dead on arrival. Not with Nigerian doctors we know.

NigeriaB:


Hahaha! No vex again..

But how can a doctor be taking orders from a nurse or pharmacist? You ma check am see. Meanwhile, in the management of patients, other medical professionals follow doctor's instructions in the patient's overall management.

Remove ego and let the normal and right thing be done.
Someone that read Hospital administration can head the hospitals, it doesn't mean other health professionals.
Don't forget, other of those other health professionals are humans and some are good more than some doctors academically. Everybody can't be a Medical Doctor.
No health professionals has all the knowledge.

AleAirHub:
Why do we have so many related courses to a medical doctor in Nigeria?. I see that as a discipline distraction and those courses should be scrapped asap.

Statement from a classical idiots who does not know anything.

Is Medical Doctor the president of Nigeria?
Is the Medical doctors the head of NASS?
Any laws that they make, are you not going to obey it or you will say because they are not medical doctors, they can't give you orders to follow?
Don't forget, all medical professionals in federal hospitals are all employees of the federal government, it is the government that dictate what happened in the hospitals and not any of the employees.
Well, Government knows what to do.

You sound bitter.

I think you should check again the hospital management in Nigeria. There is also Director of Administration. Should that one be scrapped as well?[/quote
Director of administration that takes order from the CMD?

ChngedChnges:

You see why I said You're a kid. The pay abroad is according to work hours. Nurses end up being paid higher than the doctors at the end of the day. Also, the nigerian MBBS degree is less recognized abroad. So it requires extra examinations and courses before you're certified to work there. #in the land of the blind one eyed man is a king. It's not my fault the people of the land want to see

You end up being an assistant with your nigerian cert and NMA membership

K. So USA trained Doc who also take NMA license exam before allowed to practice in Nigeria also mean their certi is less recognized.
I never knew there are special course which aren't taught in Medical curriculum only to be taught Abroad. Hearing that from the 1st time.

And No wonder Nurses abroad are richer than Doc abroad


Everything abt ur comment reeks ignorance and stupidity.

Abeg off my mention

a good move

I went to a hospital because followed someone who went for treatment, there was a treatment rugiment the doctor wrote for the patient to take to the pharmacist for drugs, the pharmacist saw it and call the attention of the doctor to the drugs. After the doctor listen to the pharmacist, he quickly make an amendment to the treatment rugiment. See, nobody knows it all.
Let stop this arrogancy.
To be a pharmacist now in many universities is now 6years excluding internship and service.
A Pharmacist can survive a medical school but he or she chooses to be a pharmacist because that's where passion is.
Don't sound it to mean that other health professionals are dull.

Racoon:
Of course, the should as they are also part of the healthcare team.

No no no.

As a healthcare Manager l can say that Doctors naturally coordinate all other health workers.
He sees the patience request for investigation then prescribes.

Doctors should pls lead the lead even a GP can be Medical Director if they want to be liberal

Irrespective of what is going on in Nigeria, God is still God.
Everybody will die and leave everything beyond including position and wealth.
Why not allow other health professionals to grow? The doctors think they can keep on opposing them? The space is so wide for every medical professionals to grow and excel.
If they increase Health care professionals salary or allowances, doctors will go on strike, if they increase Doctors salary and allowances, they are happy.
Entry point, Doctors on GL 12 while others are GL9 or GL10. The only difference in year of study is 1year still, the doctors are not satisfied.

Okwyjesus:

What is the job description of a CMD?
If you can answer this correctly, you delete this rubbish you just typed.
You don't know the difference between administrative head and clinical head.

One of these Pharmacist that always think they are better than Doctors.

They should include
PATIENTS, WARD MAIDS and CLEANERS... too

In a renowned Private hospital that I visited last year.The CMD is an admistrator,she oversees all the affairs in the hospital.

Nonetheless, we have Head Nurse,Head Doctor n Hods of various in this same hospital

Whats a Medical doctors business in doing an HRs /admin job?
Lets call a spade a spade.

Bluntemperor:


Hope you have a Doctor and have sat down to know the years of training,the experience,the capacity and capabilities of being a Physician or you just want trend!
For instance,so a 2-years nursing personnel too can also head the whole Healthcare System as a part or because someone is popular,he/she gets vote to be directing the affairs of the Healcare!
Those House Members should rather spent time on something Noble, for I believed that Healthcare System will find her level on who should head them,not Politicians doing things in their own way!

The doctor was trained as a DOCTOR. To heal people. Doctors are not trained to administer a hospital. In fact, in America, administrators run institutions. Not professionals working in the institutions. For example, administrators run universities, not lecturers.

seunmsg:
This is long overdue but NMA will sabotage it by going on another indefinite strike.

How are you supposed to be an expert on that matter again you impostor?

I don't think you're a medic. Enjoy yourself child

Verrrrry Good. This bill should be passed as soon as possible. After all, Nigerians have the right to appoint anyone to handle whatever sector in this country. But please allow Buhari and Tonubu to see their doctors in London hospital.

Rubbish

Madas1986:
total sense remove that non and pocket what do you know

lol. You will never understand.

opera1:

if the reps approve it, nothing they can do

Only people with brain-related revulsion do come online to insult someone's opinion because of their proficiency to reason, think proper and assimilate information is died.
Nonsense

Father4all:

They will work against its approval

eguarojeona:
Why?Are they the owners of the hospitals?They are mere employees.

They control virtually everything in the hospital and will not allow the bill to see the light of the day.

maticar:

Well if the law says so, they can't do otherwise

They will do everything to block it before its approval.

drnoel:


Once it's passed in a bill and signed, it becomes law. NMC can't do anything about it. Besides there is no place in NMC laws and bylaws that state the only them must run hospitals. Besides what the reps want to do is make those other branches of healthcare be part of hospital boards

They are cunning , boastful and authoritative. They have influence too so they will try to kill the bill before its approval.
Mind you, some of them are in the house and will go against the bill.

AleAirHub:

You are not intelligent bro.

You that are gifted where has it landed you?

Oppy2k2:


You are not intelligent bro.

Let's be patient and wait for the outcome of the bill. If this bill is passed, it's going to be a very remarkable bill that will bring alot of positive changes in the health sector.
Egoistic attitude will stop.

opera1:

That is myth.The govt owns the teaching hospitals. They can only do that in their own private hospitals (even that is debatable)

I get your point brother! Other health professionals can be part of management board and of course head some administrative positions in the hospitals.

But just try and watch some western/amarican medical movies.
