Bayelsa Signs MOU For Management of HospitalThe Bayelsa State Government has entered into an agreement with Oyesis Global Network Nigeria Ltd for the management of the Government House Hospital Complex, towards actualizing its vision of transforming the state into a major medical tourism destination.

Speaking shortly after signing the memorandum of understanding in the Government House, Yenagoa, Governor Seriake Dickson said his administration has already made relevant investments in the sector, including the complex, to drive the vision.

According to the Governor, the 350-bed Melford Okilo Memorial Hospital and other ongoing health projects in the state would be completed and put to use in 2017, in addition to the state healthcare insurance scheme.

The Governor said that “most of the health facilities in the state would be run under a public private partnership arrangement” and called on the people of the state and the general public to take advantage of the services.

Describing the diagnostic centre as a world-class facility, which has been outsourced to a reputable medical firm, he said the forensic analysis unit would commence operations in January 2017.

Commenting further on the Government House Hospital Complex, Governor Dickson described its location as strategic, as the facility would enjoy constant power supply and security services to boost service delivery to the people.

In his remarks, the leader of the Oyesis Global Network Nigeria Ltd team, Dr. Herbert Oye, while commending the state government for providing state-of-the-art health facilities said that with proper management of the projects, the government would reap bountifully from its investments.

“I assure you of my company’s commitment to the agreement and to bring our experience to bear on the running of this state healthcare delivery system, in accordance with international standards,” he said.
