Gov. Bago begins remodeling, expanding of Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida Specialist Hospital (IBBSH), Minna

Remodeling and expanding Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida Specialist Hospital (IBBSH), Minna.

IBB specialist Hospital, a state-owned tertiary facility established in 1995.
With the exception of VIP wing, it has not witnessed any expansion since inception. Today, the hospital is beginning to wear a new look, thanks to the intervention of Governor Umaru Bago.

Before now, parts of IBB Hospital’s equipment are outdated, with crumbling structures and inadequate facilities across its wards.

While Governor Bago’s administration is already converting the old Shiroro Hotel into the state’s first University Teaching Hospital, he recognized the imperative to remodel the IBB Hospital to a global standard, equipping it with state-of-the-art facilities such as Computed tomography (CT) scan machines, hemodialysis machines, fully automated laboratory machines, Echocardiography machines, ventilators, Defibrillators, Theatre operating lamps, operating tables, Ultrasound machines, Infusion pumps, and Digital x-ray machines. All these will significantly improve the state’s health infrastructure.

Upon completion, the remodeled hospital will boast:

General Outpatient Department (GOPD), patient’s waiting area, Intensive Care Unit, Accident and Emergency Unit, VIP Section, Trauma center, Doctors quarters, cafeteria and completion of retention wall

Additional supplies include:

Endoscopy instruments for Lower Tract: Endoscopy Tower, Monitor, Camera head, 30-degree Rigid Telescope, Resectoscope (bipolar and Monopolar), Erllik evacuator, Diathermy Pedal, Endoscopy graspers, and biopsy forceps.

Below are images showcasing the newly constructed Intensive Care Unit and how the GOPD will look when completed.
