How care flows here

A referral hospital on Abia’s care ladder

Healthcare in Abia works like a ladder. Everyday care happens at the state’s 412 local clinics and health centres. When they cannot treat something, the patient is sent up to a bigger hospital like this one (Abia has 321 of them). The very hardest cases go up once more, to one of the state’s 7 top-level hospitals.
