NATIONAL STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES FOR THE CONDUCT OF MEDICAL/HEALTH MISSIONS IN NIGERIA

The health sector in Nigeria has been inundated with challenges which range from inadequate infrastructure, insufficient functional up-to–date medical facilities, the need for adequate and technically qualified manpower as well as budgetary constraints in addressing the diverse and complex health needs of the people of Nigeria (rural and urban communities). As a way of addressing these challenges, many diaspora and foreign organisations and individuals have for decades been visiting Nigeria to render healthcare services to complement the efforts of the government, the organised private health sector and voluntary non-government organisations.
