How care flows here

A referral hospital on Jigawa’s care ladder

Healthcare in Jigawa works like a ladder. Everyday care happens at the state’s 1,015 local clinics and health centres. When they cannot treat something, the patient is sent up to a bigger hospital like this one (Jigawa has 34 of them). The very hardest cases go up once more, to one of the state’s 2 top-level hospitals.
