The Department of Health Abu Dhabi and The Authority of Social Contribution - Ma'an have joined forces to launch a groundbreaking initiative aimed at boosting research and development in the emirate's life sciences and healthcare sector. This partnership, forged during DoH's participation in Arab Health Exhibition 2024, marks a significant step towards securing a sustainable financing system for healthcare and ultimately enhancing the health and safety of communities not only in Abu Dhabi but around the world. The initiative focuses on collecting and directing contributions for scientific research and development purposes, creating a robust ecosystem that fosters innovation and empowers researchers to tackle pressing healthcare challenges. This aligns perfectly with the mission of value based healthcare (#VBHC ), whose scientific publications serve as vital resources for public policy makers, investors, clinicians, and patients alike. Here's how VBHC publications can contribute to the success of this initiative: »Providing Evidence-Based Insights: rigorous peer-reviewed articles offer data-driven insights into various healthcare topics, guiding public policy decisions towards effective interventions and resource allocation. »Supporting Investment Decisions: Investors seeking to capitalize on promising R&D opportunities can utilize VBHC publications to identify potential areas of impact and gauge the feasibility of research projects. »Informing Clinical Practice: Clinicians making critical decisions for their patients can leverage VBHC publications to stay abreast of the latest research findings and evidence-based practices. »Empowering Patients: By disseminating clear and reliable information, VBHC publications can empower patients to make informed decisions about their own health and participate actively in healthcare research.

VBHC scientific publications, with their commitment to rigorous scholarship and accessibility, are poised to play a crucial role in supporting public policy making, investment decisions, clinical practice, and patient empowerment. #vbhc #publicpolicy #investment

For me, Arab Health Exhibition is not just about connecting with current and potential partners, it is also about learning more about the region, and I was lucky to attend a session hosted by the Department for Business and Trade and Healthcare UK about healthcare education and training opportunities in Saudi Arabia. My key learnings from the session were: ▶️ We need to recognise that as life progresses we have to identify different approaches to learning ▶️ What we learn needs to change to take into account the global context of disease burden and prevention ▶️ We shouldn't undermine the power of technology to help us to teach and learn differently and more effectively ▶️ Global partnerships will help maximise the approach to healthcare education delivery At Guy's and St Thomas' Consulting we are keen to work out how our existing approach to medical education can help advance healthcare globally, and in particular where the opportunities are for partnering in the Kingdom to collaboratively develop a new approach to learning. #NHS #healthcare #Education #advancinghealthcareglobally #arabhealth2024 #saudiarabia

✈️ As the Vita team heads to the Arab Health Exhibition next week, it’s impossible not to think about the incredible pace of healthcare innovation in the Middle East. Yet, there’s a flip side to this progress – a skills gap that needs bridging, and the ever-present challenge of brain drain. 👨⚕️ Addressing the Skill Gap With medical tourism flourishing, the demand for skilled healthcare professionals is at an all-time high. The region is taking significant strides to close this gap, recognizing the need to develop a robust strategy to enhance the capabilities of healthcare workers. Investments in local education and training programs are crucial to counter the predicted global shortage of 18 million healthcare workers by 2030. 📍Combating Brain Drain Efforts to retain local talent are intensifying. Initiatives like Saudi Arabia's Health Sector Transformation Program aim to incentivise nationals to pursue healthcare careers, while the UAE's golden visas exemplify the strategic efforts to attract and retain the best minds while fostering a competitive and innovative healthcare environment. 🤝Fostering Sustainable Healthcare The Middle East is embedding advanced technologies like AI and telemedicine into the healthcare system, setting the stage for sustainable development that caters to the unique needs of its population. 👩🏫 Empowering Local Talent with Education At the heart of this transformation is the commitment to education, which is pivotal in nurturing local talent and bridging the existing skill gap. Sustainable healthcare development hinges on a well-trained workforce. By enhancing medical and nursing curricula and expanding the number of medical schools, such as Saudi Arabia's plan to increase its medical schools significantly, the Middle East is laying the groundwork for a new generation of healthcare professionals. 👋 See you at Arab Health! Let’s chat about the future of the healthcare workforce and how Vita's educational services are aligning with the Middle East's vision to nurture a new generation of healthcare professionals. #MiddleEastHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #SustainableDevelopment #HealthcareWorkforce #Education #HealthcareEducation #VitaEducation #BrainDrain #SkillsGap #TalentRetention #Hospital #Clinicians #MiddleEast #ArabHealth2024 #ArabHealth

Saudi Arabia's median age is just shy of 31, and 63 per cent of its population is under 30. This suggests that the kingdom’s workforce is poised for a huge tranche of young talent.
