Governance

At the apex of the decision making chain in the hospital is the Federal Ministry of Health which also represents the interest of the owners i.e. Federal Government of Nigeria.

The Psychiatric Hospital Yaba Management Board is the next in line and it is responsible for formulating broad policies for the organization and ensuring that Government policies and programmes on mental health are faithfully implemented.

The Medical Director heads the Management team and he is responsible for the day to day governance of the hospital subject to directions of the Board.
