Brian Deaver, chief executive officer of Afreximbank-backed African Medical Centre of Excellence (AMCE), has said Nigeria and Africa at large will continue to struggle to deliver healthcare for citizens if health professionals remain unappreciated and burned-out.
Deaver said governments must begin to create systems that would enable health workers thrive, stressing that only a healthier population will fuel a healthier economy.
The CEO said this Thursday at the BusinessDay Health Conference in Abuja with the theme, “Bridging The Gap: Advancing Equitable and Affordable Access to Healthcare in Nigeria”.
