Department of Health

21ST-CENTURY HEALTH PROJECT!


Nation Builders International Department of Health has a 21st-century health vision, which is about health for the total man, body, soul, and spirit. The implementation of this vision will be carried out through the vehicle of a health project.

21st-CENTURY HEALTH PROJECT

The 21st-century health project is a revolutionary concept intended to actualize the 21st-century health plan as explained in Dr Benard Etta's book (Health for the total man, Body, soul, and Spirit). It is an improvement of all that has existed as health endeavours. Its areas of establishment worldwide will be called the "City of Refuge." The name "City of Refuge" will be indebted to its role in providing hope for the hopeless. Its establishment will be like a mini-settlements, with facilities for patients, students, and personnel. It will have a medical department and three health institutes to help actualize its health objectives for the total man (body, soul, and spirit).

MEDICAL DEPARTMENT

The Medical Department of the 21st-Century Health Project will cater to the health needs of the sick and the diseased through drugs, modern health technologies, and organic medicine. The medical department will be structured as a research hospital, serving as a medical and research centre.

Since the quality of personnel in any establishment determines the quality of service offered by the establishment, the staff of the medical centre will be well-trained in relation to the demands of the 21st-century health plan. They must develop an integrated and comprehensive medical capacity to serve as experts on health issues, not just ordinary doctors or nurses. They must have a broader range of experience to equally function as health counsellors, psychologists, and consultants to the sick and the diseased.

The medical department will have rooms and not wards. Hospital wards were a concept of the past, which has increasingly contributed to the infection of individuals from other sick people. The hospital will have private rooms arranged in rolls to minimize the chances of someone contaminating the other.

Each room will be convenient enough to accommodate an individual. Each room will have a speaker attached to the ceiling; that enables the patient to enjoy quality music and encouraging messages. Music will not be loud but soft enough to lure the patients out of the consciousness of their sicknesses. Health personnel trained for the above will coordinate the musical desk.

The hospital will also have an auditorium for weekend entertainment. Every weekend, the hospital authorities will invite musicians, dramatists, and comedians to inspire, motivate and encourage patients. With the above measures, the 21st-century health project medical department will produce efficient results and facilitate the quick recovery of patients.

NB. The medical department of the 21st-century health plan is just a dimension of the project. On the same land, there will equally exist the following.
i) A well-constructed health institution for the body

ii) A well-constructed health institution for the soul

iii) A well-constructed health institution for the spirit.

The above will then make the 21st-century health project fully integrated, massive, extensive and comprehensive in its approach to guaranteeing health for all.

AIDS (Acquired immune deficiency syndrome) is a disease that renders the body’s immune system impotent to resist the invasion of microorganisms, which causes infections. The virus which causes AIDS is known as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
AIDS is a global challenge to individuals, nations, and the international community. More people are dying of AIDS today than through any other pandemic. AIDS is more prevalent in Africa due to a high level of ignorance and underdevelopment. AIDS is usually characterized by severe weight loss and fatigue and frequent neurological complications due to damage to the brain cells. There is also a high incidence of certain cancers, especially Kaposis sarcoma, which shows up purple lesions on the skin and tumours known as B-cell lymphomas.
