The Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, established 56 years ago to care for all-inclusive medical needs of Nigerians has earned a reputation as the leading health care provider in the country, going by statistics of patronage. ADVERTISING Understandably, since 1962 when it was founded, several feats have been recorded even as it strives to meet the medical requests of an increasingly growing megacity. LUTH, like other national institutions, always has the need to upgrade its facilities towards meeting the challenges of the time to retain confidence of its teeming patients. It is common knowledge that population growth, pressure and time impress the burden of ‘tear and wear’ on such facilities, overstretching capacities in view of decades of usage attending to the sick who daily the facility, both for minor and complex medical needs. However, in spite of these challenges, LUTH is responding to mitigate the consequences of aging facilities.
