The thing is that these ideas as beautiful as they may be feels so distant for real because in as much as the main purpose should be to save lives, doctors aren't paid an ideal amount
A country that pays politicians and many others professions more than the so called profession saving lives... Nah! It's not even comparison but let's just say any country paying these doctors below what can sustain them obviously leaves them to cater for themselves
These same doctors that work nonchalantly at school centres own private hospitals where their patients receive top care treatments whenever they come and can you blame them? No one jokes with whatever feeds him and if you can't feed the doctors at places you employed them, they will scavenge around elsewhere.
It's painful and it's more painful that the solutions aren't even around 😢
I can't even write my post in response to this now with this rage for real! It'll just be an endless posts because believe me! As someone in the system, I'm not even happy at all
Hehe, I know all of these things and it’s obvious how much the whole system has failed, beginning from the simplest unit which is the family.
It’s sad that our doctors and health professionals are not paid just enough to help them survive and that has directly affected the whole health system.
You shouldn’t back out on making your suggestions, you have to and I’m sure that even as you do it, you will figure our some ways you as someone in the field can do better and also encourage your colleagues too.
It’s definitely not an easy process but then, if you give up on it, I give up too, then it means we are accepting what we have now as the new norm. Someone once said that, what you are not changing, you are accepting and it’s the reality of so many countries today, particularly Nigeria.
