soladnet14: Pls can someone suggest a neat/stable ROM for sgs2 gt-i9100m

AbuMikey: I don't understand oo

FutureDon: I did too, but found nothing insightful. If true, one would expect to see published papers or citations demonstrating its efficacy/replicability. In addition, one would expect a novel discovery as this one (if truly it is) to be published in high impact journal.

I really think that one should be
careful to assume where the shoe
pinches on someone else's feet! I
have practiced in Nigeria and now
in the US and as strongly as I have
felt about the state of the
healthcare system in Nigeria, I
have refrained from making
sweeping statements. The health
system in Nigeria is not the same
as that in the UK or US. Nurses in
the US can become Nurse
Practitioners after doing a
doctorate and do see patients but
they are not called Consultants.
Physician assistants love their jobs
because they get to see patients
but their is still oversight from a
physician. You may provide
consulting services to an insurance
company but that does not make
you a medical consultant the way
the term consultant is used in
Nigeria.
In all, we should remember that
team work is what makes a
healthcare system work. The FG
has conveniently used the current
state of animosity to foster
divisions and the members keep
seeing evil in each other instead of
joining hands to fight for a
sustainable health system for
everyone to work together without
fear and for the good of the
patient. Remember you also could
be a patient one day and all you
would want is the best hands
treating you.
Hospital administration: hot issue.
In the US, many hospitals are out
to make money and the CEO may
not be a doctor. However, there
are executive medical directors
who are physicians and in charge
of the medical side of things. In
Nigerian State Hospitals, there is
no fracas about who is in charge, I
suspect many of these issues occur
in our teaching hospitals, and I
may be wrong....... There is a DA in
charge of Administration,a CMAC in
charge of clinical services and the
CMD is the equivalent of the EMD
here. If there is a board to whom
the CMD is answerable,it allows for
checks and balances and helps
everyone feel they have voice. I am
not sure that the clamor to be CMD
by ancillary staff is legitimate
based on the healthcare system we
run in Nigeria. It's just a different
chain of command as compared to
what obtains in the US where you
have a CEO who usually is someone
with a Healthcare MBA, who
actually sometimes is also a
doctor.
One last point, every profession
has value. If you see value in what
you do, you are content within its
provisions for career development
and seek to excel at it. If you are a
nurse, nurse with all your heart;a
doctor,be your best at your
profession, a lab scientist , produce
consistent accurate results, a
pharmacist,help in picking up drug
errors and we can all ensure a safe
system for patients.

theplanmaker: as backwards as Nigeria is, we r still miles ahead of some pepo. if the disease resurfaces in Nigeria I'm very sure its spread ll b effectively curtailed

QuiverBox: So who suffers? ,
Is it the common man that can't afford the drugs or the governent officials in power that can afford the drugs.

So what is we don't get the subsidies for HIV drugs.

Malaria is the No1 killer disease in Nigeria if the USA love us so much how come malaria drug aint free or subsidized.?

Instead of crying over sactions why, can't we think of ways to to become independent.

Are you saying Nigeria can't survive without Grants or subsidy?

mezebel: have u finish the one they gave u last month?

mez: We import virtually everything!
