Nigeria needs realistic national hospitals and medical emergency response programmes designed on the principle of equitable distribution of appropriate equipment, supplies and well trained emergency medical personnel.

It however provides health care Forces for members of the general public.

This research assessed preparedness of the medical corps of the Nigeria Police Force toward emergency Forces; -an assessment of the emergency unit of the Nigeria Police Hospital, Abuja.
