WE SAVE LIFE BEFORE ANY OTHER THING "OUR OATH"
DR BASSEY NWABOR OF ELSHADDAI HOSPITAL

The Medical Director of El Shaddai Hospital situated at KM 4, LASU Isheri Road, Iyana School Bus Stop, Iba, Lagos, Dr. Bassey Nwabor by name urged the government especially the incoming president, Ashiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to improve the medical practicing condition of our nation, Nigeria in order to help the doctors and nurses work efficiently and effectively. He made mention of some areas the government should see into like the increment of doctors salary, the environmental factors like water, electricity should improve and most especially they should decrease the tax levied on doctors.

In order to reduce the rate of Nigerian doctors leaving the country and Nigerians travelling abroad to get treated, he urged the government to also provide a good health care infrastructure.

Dr. Bassey went further in advising the private doctors to also remember that their job is a humanitarian job. They should rise in all their might and strength to help the government in the health care system.

He urged them to reduce the bills and attend to the people (patients) with so much care.

“Let’s not chase them away with our bills”

He also advised them to remember that life should always come first.

“Let us remember our oath. We save life before anything. We cannot recover life but money can always be recovered.”

He also talked about the important roles played by the auxiliary and registered nurses in the health system.

“They are both important in the system because the auxiliary nurse cannot do it all while the registered nurse cannot also do it all. Whereas, to maintain the registered nurse can be so expensive, so we use the trained/auxiliary nurse to complement each other in order to improve the system”

Dr. Bassey encouraged the great Nigerians especially the masses to know their health status and register in a registered hospital irrespective of the economic status of the nation because health is wealth.
