THE IMPORTANCE OF INNOVATION
Lagoon has long pioneered advanced medical care in Nigeria , becoming the first private hospital in the country to successfully perform open-heart surgery . Today , such pioneering innovation continues , where Lagoon eagerly embraces the latest technology . “ Innovation has always been very important to us . In Nigeria , we were the first operators to actually launch fully electronic medical records . We predominantly operate paperless facilities and we have gone electronic for our patients . This can be accessed across facilities ,” Bhandari advises .
“ Additionally , we have our own hospital information system that we work with . All our facilities are connected to each other so a patient can walk into any of our facilities and with one registration number we can access their medical records . That ensures continuity of care . Technology is of course paramount to our business , and so we ’ re investing in the best and latest medical technology .”
