Doctors find it difficult to get a place ? I doubt.

Medical schools are also springing up and producing more graduates beyond what the sector can currently absorb for internships and more medical students are receiving training in Eastern Europe and Asia, and coming back to Nigeria to complete the internship programme.

To make matters worse, there has been no corresponding expansion of secondary health facilities to provide more training slots. The difficulty in securing internship slots by young medical graduates is likely to influence their future career plans. As internship slots get more difficult to come by, residency/ post-graduation training opportunities also dwindle.

Difficulties in securing these opportunities for career development will probably negatively influence new medical graduates and they will continue to seek better opportunities outside Nigeria. The high rate at which Nigerian doctors are accepted into training programs in the most advanced countries in the world today is a testament to the capability of graduates from our medical schools. However, Nigeria needs to get its act together if it is to be the “Giant of Africa” when it comes to retention of medical doctors in its health system. http://nigeriahealthwatch.com/medical-training-and-the-challenges-of-finding-internship-slots-in-nigeria/

funny thing is... that 294 million bill for 300 accident victims is not entirely off for such a hospital. that commisioner is just looking for power over the hospital and ranting... divide the bill up factoring in the numerous surgeries, investigations, specialist consultations and long admissions.

Lagos, Nigeria. January 7, 2016 – IFC, a member of the World Bank Group; together with IFHA-II Cooperatief, a private equity fund focused on investing in the healthcare sector in Sub-Saharan Africa; Swiss Re, the reinsurance company; and CIEL Healthcare Africa Limited, a pan-African healthcare company, today announced an investment of $66.8 million in Hygeia Nigeria Limited, Nigeria’s leading private healthcare company.

The new investment aims to improve healthcare infrastructure and increase access to quality healthcare services in Nigeria. In addition to providing capital, the partnership will increase and broaden the technical expertise at Hygeia and ensure global best practices through the involvement of Ciel Healthcare Africa. Ciel is working in association with Fortis, a leading integrated healthcare delivery service provider in India. Through this project, Hygeia will have the capacity to reach more than two million patients over the seven-year investment period.

Fola Laoye, Chairperson of the Board of Hygeia Nigeria Limited, said, “As Nigeria’s foremost and leading private integrated healthcare services provider, Hygeia is consistently seeking ways to improve and expand our offerings so that we can offer more Nigerians world class services at affordable rates and help to reverse the growing trend to travel abroad for care. IFC and IFHA, our long term partners, are working with us to achieve our aim of closing the gap of quality healthcare service delivery in Nigeria. We are excited to bring on board reputable new partners like Swiss Re and Ciel Healthcare Africa. We thank the Satya team for their support and commitment during a very important time of development for Hygeia.”

Hygeia, operates a network of two hospitals and three clinics under the Lagoon Hospitals brand and a health maintenance organization, Hygeia HMO. It is expanding its operations by upgrading and increasing capacity at existing hospitals, including its management information system, and creating a new tertiary care hospital. The investment will allow Hygeia to expand its service offering in healthcare services and the HMO to allow greater access to quality healthcare in Nigeria.

Eme Essien, IFC Country Manager for Nigeria said, “IFC is committed to financing integrated healthcare networks to help increase access to quality healthcare. More people will get better access to quality and cost effective healthcare in Nigeria.”

“IFHA-II believes that we have a strong consortium of partners in place to help realize growth at Hygeia. Nigeria is a key market for IFHA-II and through our investment in Hygeia we will be able to expand access to quality healthcare across the country.” said Max Coppoolse, the Managing Partner of IFHA-II. _{https://ifcextapps.ifc.org/ifcext/Pressroom/IFCPressRoom.nsf/0/C1481BDFE4A7586185257F33003E3183}

Erm

I do not think education is the answer especially theoretical as you seem to opine unless you are emphasizing skills acquisition.

However, I agree with the fact that we don't need super structures as this so called " world class " hospital. The problem with these so called projects is that they lack proper research as to their suitability to the Nigerian environment and also double as money siphoning avenues.

Blue3k:
Anyway we can blame this on state government exclusively. It's crazy nobody in State legislature cared to probe into this or question them about these issues. Our state representatives are lap dogs for these guys to waste money. How can health minister not know if the hospital is carrying out contractual obligations?

laudate

YelloweWest:
At least them see the hospital on ground.

Ameathief said the $200 million dollars approved for hospital was duped from him

Ipob always seek support from criminals. Julian Assange is currently a fugitive, hiding from the American government.He can't even enter America because he knows he will be arrested. He is a criminal and one of the most wanted man in America

Yoshy:
Focus on the matter and don't get shaky and insulting with your blood boiling when you know you don't have a point and it's exposed, that's a bad way to live.

mightyhazel:
and who is ds one running arounf d threaf like a vagrant. are u dat jobless ? or u br errand boy ?

Adiola:
shatap.....and to the topic I never knew self glorification is another form of recognition op is same person as omenka ....he can deceive others not me

Yoshy:
Hahaha! my friend, that he is hiding proves even more his significance, you may not know that the world has gone digital and people with significance digital influence are sure important, at least US and UK won't be looking for someone without damaging influence.

Yoshy:
What is the relationship between hidding and influence here, with regards to Assange? understand it and you will know you're not making sense at all. You're not likely a techy person hence your ignorance on the matter.

Cire80:
Anonymous are not a nefarious group. I'm not in support of every of their activities but don't trust the FBI and everything they tell you. They're master of facade and charade. And there's no server that's impossible to crash. Continued launching of DDOS weakens any server weakens it. When millions of computers launch an attack on a server, the best the managers can do is to shut it down to prevent further damage that's why they've been able to infiltrate and damage the most sophisticated US government agencies

Mujaheeeden:
Do you know the amount of followership Assange has? A lot of liberals see him as a demi god and a lot of hackers respect him.

Dedetwo:
I guess you meant Nigeria.

Yoshy:
Either you're probably delusional or totally ignorant to not understand that Assange have way more influence in this world that is digital than Buhari, you probably don't know about the Dark net.

Ngozi123:
Is all well in the world of laudate? I may have quoted you first in this thread but how many times has the reverse been the case? A lot.

Regarding the bolded, how is responding to your mention an example of chasing you all over Nairaland? Like I said before, you seem to be suffering from delusions of grandeur. Quel dommage!
