AGCare Healthcare Management Institute (AHMI)
As part of AGCare’s ongoing mission to reduce Nigeria’s mortality rate and improve healthcare services through sustainable, quality healthcare management, AGCare launched its healthcare management institute in 2024 to boost the capabilities of healthcare sector professionals through several capacity-building initiatives. These initiatives are focused on developing healthcare professionals and boosting their competencies, we offer targeted training programs. These programs cover a range of essential skills, including leadership, innovation, patient experience, employee management, and clinical and non-clinical operations.
According to the World Health Organization, 15% of overall deaths in low-income and middle-income countries in the world, such as Nigeria, are attributed to poor quality of healthcare, estimated at between 5.7 and 8.4 million deaths.

With a further estimation of Nigeria’s mortality rate at 67 per 100,000 due to poor quality care (Lancet Global Health Commission Report, 2018), AGCare was established to play a role in reducing Nigeria’s mortality rate by improving the quality of healthcare concerning clinical outcomes, patient experience, accessibility & affordability, healthcare personnel management, and non-human resources while making strategic healthcare management achievable and sustainable.
AGCare is a member of Ciuci Group, a leading operations management company with a focus on spearheading strategic healthcare management from a human-centered, safety, and quality healthcare delivery standpoint.
