Building Accountability in Healthcare, Together

Patients Trauma Relief and Rights Advocacy Initiative (PATRRAI) is a Nigerian non-governmental, non-profit organization committed to defending the rights, dignity, and well-being of patients across the nation.

Advancing Patient Safety and Justice in Line with the United Nations and World Health Organization’s Mandates.

Who We Are

Too often, patients are silenced by fear, poverty, ignorance of their rights, or trauma. Many are illegally detained in medical facilities for failure to pay hospital bills. Others suffer lifelong injuries or even death due to medical negligence, without any legal recourse or compensation. PATRRAI is a direct response to these injustices.

Our Mission

To restore dignity, justice, and healing to patients who have suffered trauma, negligence, abuse, or rights violations within the Nigerian healthcare system, through legal advocacy, public education, social intervention, and systemic reform.

Our Vision

A Nigeria where every patient receives compassionate, competent, and accountable healthcare free from abuse, trauma, neglect, and injustice.
