YPO Covid-19:- Support Lagos Isolation Centers Today. #Covid19 #CovidNGR

YPO (Young Presidents Organisation) Lagos Chapter led by Mrs Fola Laoye( nee Elebute), Dr Richard Ajayi and Dr Ola Brown have put together a field hospital in a converted space of the Landmark Event centre, V.I to deliver testing, isolation and treatment (including intensive care) to Lagosians starting on Monday.

YPO is implementing this through a public private collaboration with the Lagos state government...

They are looking for intensivists, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, facilities staff, runners etc to staff 30 beds including 5 ICU (supported by a ventilator and significant oxygen supply) as from Monday and will roll out a further 40 beds with 3 more ventilators by the end of next week. All staff will be paid and significant investments have been made to guarantee staff and patient safety.

They especially want to work with private hospitals with acute capabilities in the city so that Covid-19 patients can be isolated and treated appropriately.

They would like acute hospitals to also be on standby to care for very acute patients on a referral basis.

Interested healthcare workers should reach out with their CVs and available work hours to Oyinkan via
