Nigeria’s healthcare system is heavily underfunded, with less than 5% of the national budget allocated to health services, far below the 15% target of the Abuja Declaration. This lack of funding has led to inadequate infrastructure, poor distribution of healthcare facilities, and a lack of advanced medical technology. Rural areas are particularly affected, with limited access to even basic medical care, forcing patients to overcrowded urban hospitals.
How Christ Foundation is Helping
Christ Foundation Hospital addresses these challenges by establishing a state-of-the-art facility strategically located to serve urban and underserved areas. Its modern infrastructure, spanning a 2-acre site, and 40-bed capacity ensure patients have access to quality care in a welcoming environment. By investing in advanced medical equipment and facilities, Christ Foundation provides a benchmark for private-sector contributions to Nigeria’s healthcare sector.
