Building Sustaninable Solutions That Transform Lives

From strengthening primary health centers to delivering comprehensive school health programs, our work creates lasting change across Nigeria. Each program is designed for sustainability, scalability, and community ownership.

Adopt A Primary Healthcare Centre

Our Solution

Reimagining Primary Healthcare

Nigeria's healthcare system faces enormous challenges, with more than 80% of Primary Healthcare Centres (PHCs) in a dysfunctional state.

The Adopt a PHC (ADOPH) Programme is transforming this reality by revitalizing centres into fully functional, people-focused wellness hubs that deliver affordable, quality healthcare where it matters most.

Through a Public-Private-People Partnership model, ADOPH strengthens facilities, builds community trust, and ensures sustainability by combining health financing, capacity building, and systems for accountability.

Emergency Preparedness & Disaster Response

Overview

Program Overview (EPAD)

Launched in 2019, the E-PAD programme aims to improve quality of life and enhance population health through fit-for-purpose medical emergency response across Lagos State, Nigeria.

The Challenge:

Cardiac arrest is a sudden loss of heart function that can occur anytime, anywhere, and to anybody. Death becomes inevitable without prompt intervention.

70-80% of sudden cardiac arrests occur outside hospitals. For every minute that passes without effective CPR and defibrillation, a victim's chance of survival decreases by

7-10%.

With Nigeria's growing burden of non-communicable diseases and many unrecorded cases of cardiac arrest, the incidence of Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) and avoidable deaths could be significantly higher.

Our Solution:

Cardiac arrest may be reversible if there is timely intervention with adequate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). The combination of these actions can restore a normal heart rhythm within minutes.

With effective bystander intervention through Basic Life Support (BLS), CPR, and correct use of AEDs, survival rates can triple to 31.4%.
