 Abia Govt Directs Hospitals: Save Lives First Before Demanding Payment


The Abia State Government has directed doctors, nurses, and other medical personnel in public hospitals to prioritize saving the lives of emergency patients before requesting any form of payment.


The directive was issued during an ongoing training programme organized for doctors, nurses, pharmacists, laboratory technicians, and other healthcare workers in Umuahia.


The training, which is also preparing Patients Liaison Officers (PLOs) for various hospitals across the state, emphasized the need for improved patient-personnel relationships. Medical staff were cautioned against using harsh language on patients and their relatives, and were instead encouraged to adopt soft, courteous words and provide close, compassionate care.


Speaking at the training session, the Chief Executive Officer of Quantus Medical Foundation, Dr. Nnenna Ihekoromadu, condemned the poor patient-personnel relationship often experienced in Nigerian hospitals.


She stressed that sick persons require respect, kind words, and attentive care to enhance the effectiveness of treatment and speed up recovery.


“Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, lab technicians, or any other staff on duty should be held accountable for the good or bad service rendered to their patients,” Dr. Ihekoromadu said.


She specifically warned against abandoning patients in emergency situations due to inability to make immediate payments.


“So if a patient cannot afford care and they’ve come into an emergency situation, they will have to be treated. Stabilize them, treat them before you start asking about payments,” she stated.


Dr. Ihekoromadu also called on the Nigerian government to provide better welfare packages for medical personnel nationwide to enable them to deliver optimal healthcare services.
