Teamwork lacking in health care’
AUGUST 30, 2012 BY MUDIAGA AFFE, CALABAR LEAVE A COMMENT
LACK of team work among different professionals in the medical sector has been identified as being responsible for the problems in the health care delivery system in the country.
The National Chairman of Nigeria Association of Hospital and Administrative Pharmacists, an arm of the Pharmaceutical Association of Nigeria, Dr. Nkechi Anyanwu, made this known at the 14th Annual National Scientific Conference of NAHP, in Calabar, Cross River State.
Anyanwu said no professional within the sector could singlehandedly deliver quality health care to the masses.
She said the government needed to promote teamwork in its bid to achieve the Millennium Development Goals.
Chairman of Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria, Cross River State, Mr. Paul Agulu, said despite that Nigeria had not attained its optimum feat of providing excellent quality health care for her citizens, there were conscious efforts by various state governments to set positive goals to improve health care of her citizens.
