ABF Theatre Tops MAUTH August Ward Assessment As Standards Rise Across The Hospital

The Modibbo Adama University Teaching Hospital, MAUTH, Yola, has recorded another month of competitive clinical performance as the ABF Theatre emerged the overall winner of the hospital’s August 2026 monthly ward and theatre assessment, scoring 99.25 per cent.

The assessment, designed to measure standards, service delivery and institutional performance across the hospital’s wards and theatres, produced a closely fought ranking, with the Female Surgical Ward coming second at 99.15 per cent, while Paediatric Medical Ward II secured third position with 99.03 per cent.

The results, contained in the hospital’s 2026 Summary Result for Monthly Assessments and Evaluation of Wards and Theatres, showed that the contest was not merely a race for the top but a reflection of an institution steadily sharpening its standards.

The Private Suite followed closely in fourth position with 98.85 per cent, while Maternity Complex Theatre and Paediatric Medical Ward I jointly occupied fifth position, each recording 98.78 per cent. Amenity Ward placed seventh with 98.77 per cent, followed by Antenatal Ward at 98.61 per cent and Main Theatre at 98.56 per cent.

At the other end of the table, Male Orthopaedic Ward, with 95.79 per cent, occupied the 25th position, underscoring the narrow but consequential margins separating the performers.

Speaking as chairman of the occasion, the Chairman Medical Advisory Committee, CMAC, Dr Dahiru Yusuf Ribadu, commended the Ward Assessment Committee for what he described as a consistently objective conduct of the exercise.

He congratulated the winners for their achievement and urged wards occupying the lower rungs of the ranking to intensify their efforts, stressing the importance of continuous improvement in maintaining institutional standards.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Ward Assessment Committee, Dr Sajo Njidda, commended all the wards for their excellent performances; he noted that the assessment had revealed an impressive improvement in the performance of some wards, signalling a positive movement in the hospital’s continuing quest for excellence.

The best three wards were rewarded with prizes, including monetary rewards, turning the assessment from a mere measurement of performance into a moment of recognition, motivation and renewed commitment.

At MAUTH, therefore, the monthly assessment is not only numbers on a sheet but a mirror of standards, a measure of movement and a spur to better service, where excellence earns applause, improvement earns encouragement and every low score becomes an invitation to climb higher.
