How care flows here

A referral hospital on Plateau’s care ladder

Healthcare in Plateau works like a ladder. Everyday care happens at the state’s 1,344 local clinics and health centres. When they cannot treat something, the patient is sent up to a bigger hospital like this one (Plateau has 207 of them). The very hardest cases go up once more, to one of the state’s 9 top-level hospitals.
