In addition to the safety measures put in place and to extend support to complement the [Nigerian] Government’s efforts in the fight against COVID-19, St. Nicholas Hospital has created the SAFETY PLUS FACILITY, a special unit tasked with the responsibility to curb the spread of diseases within the hospital and further treat referrals to support other private and public healthcare institutions.
As part of these efforts, St. Nicholas Hospital has retrofitted a fully-equipped medical unit as testing, isolation, treatment and training centre to further control infectious diseases. The St. Nicholas Hospital Safety Plus Facility is an additional 13 bedded facility located at the Maryland Branch of St. Nicholas Hospital, equipped with medical equipment, supplies and trained personnel to support patients with comorbidities. We have therefore commenced activities to serve the growing needs of the population during this critical period and after.
This expansion aligns with our mission to provide comprehensive healthcare towards preventing illness, relieve suffering, restore health and promote wellbeing. In this vein, we are making a deliberate effort by mobilizing resources across specialties to provide clinical, technical and operational support, while providing distinct care and building reassurance through public awareness drives.
