Flying Doctors Nigeria is an air ambulance service established by Dr Ola Brown.[1]
It has its main office in Lagos and another in Port Harcourt with 20 aircraft and 47 staff, 44 of whom are doctors.[2] As well as moving injured and ill patients to the hospital, the organisation has set up medical infrastructure for the government and worked with private companies to improve their on-site medical services.
It contracts with the government and private companies. Helicopters are provided for corporate clients running large events, and wealthy families and individuals can set up a membership plan for private emergency healthcare.[2]
The company has entered into an agreement with a UK-based call centre to operate telephone services to provide stable communications.[3]
