As part of efforts to boost healthcare infrastructure in the state, the ongoing massive projects at the permanent site of Enugu State University of Science And Technology (ESUT) Teaching Hospital and College of Medicine, Igbo Eno, Enugu State, was initiated and being executed by Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi’s administration.

The major essence is to provide quality and affordable healthcare services to all residents of Enugu State, as well as make the state a choice destination for healthcare tourism, despite the nation’s economic challenges as well as the state’s lean resources.

The health facilities made up of two sections of a Teaching Hospital, seating on two floors (the outpatient department of seven sections and in-patient department with 200-bed wards); a College of Medicine comprising two units of twelve classroom blocks, and two units of ten classroom blocks.

It also has two units of 8 classroom blocks and 2 units of 208 student-capacity hostel and provision for the construction of a helicopter landing pad (helipad) reserved for hospital emergency operations.

The facilities were adjudged as “simply unbelievable” and in line with World Health Organization (WHO) standard, by the Management of the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), Enugu, during their recent validation visit to the site.
