How care flows here

A referral hospital on Yobe’s care ladder

Healthcare in Yobe works like a ladder. Everyday care happens at the state’s 472 local clinics and health centres. When they cannot treat something, the patient is sent up to a bigger hospital like this one (Yobe has 15 of them). The very hardest cases go up once more, to one of the state’s 2 top-level hospitals.
