Leading health care services provider, EHA Clinics Kano, has advocated for access to affordable quality health care in Nigeria, and across the African continent.

The call was made during a press conference in Abuja yesterday, by the chief executive officer, EHA Clinics Kano, Adam Thompson to brief the media about the clinic, Gold Seal of Approval for Ambulatory Care. Awarded to it by Joint Commission International (JCI), in recognition of its commitment to quality primary healthcare delivery in Nigeria, and continuous compliance with internationally-recognized standards

Thompson said; “We are the first primary healthcare clinic in Subsaharan Africa to be accredited by JCI for ambulatory care. We are proud to be transforming healthcare and setting the pace for primary healthcare standards in Nigeria and Africa at large.

“in 2015, a study showed that there were a million neonatal deaths of people that had access to essential health services. The core reason was poor care and lack of quality standards, so they had access to care but just didn’t have access to quality care.

“As a leading primary healthcare provider in Nigeria, our goal is to influence the private and public sectors to embrace the idea that the minimum standard of care should comprise of access, affordability, and quality. “He stated.
