Flagged for verification. Veligraph shows the figure as registered but marks it unusual: doctors disproportionate to beds, the register lists an unusually high number of doctors relative to its beds for a general hospital, denser than one doctor per three beds, which is worth verifying. The number is unedited, we surface the discrepancy rather than hide it.

How care flows here

A referral hospital on Bayelsa’s care ladder

Healthcare in Bayelsa works like a ladder. Everyday care happens at the state’s 32 local clinics and health centres. When they cannot treat something, the patient is sent up to a bigger hospital like this one (Bayelsa has 40 of them). The very hardest cases go up once more, to one of the state’s 4 top-level hospitals.
