The Crown Prince Centre for Training and Medical Research has obtained international accreditation certificate from Health Specialities Authority, for a period of four years after it fulfilled all the criteria for institutional accreditation for training in postgraduate health professional programmes accredited by the Saudi Commission for Health Specialities.
This came as a result of the vision of the Commander of the Royal Medical Services Major General Professor Shaikh Khalid bin Ali Al Khalifa to take health training to a high level of technology to assist the various health sectors in Bahrain, and under the directives of director of programmes of the Saudi Commission for Health Specialities and the regular representative of the Commission at the Military Hospital Colonel Dr Nayef Abdulrahman Lori.
The centre aims to offer training based on the latest international healthcare methods to enable medical personnel to provide the best health services to the citizens of Bahrain and the region. Thus doctors affiliated with the Health Specialities Authority from Bahrain and Saudi Arabia will be able to obtain the necessary medical training to pass the various training programmes offered by the Saudi Commission.
Professor Shaikh Khalid confirmed that this accreditation came as a result of the Royal Medical Services’ efforts during 2020, after obtaining a comprehensive accreditation from the Australian Medical Standards Authority and the international accreditation certificate from the Society for Simulation in Healthcare in the US.
He pointed out that these certificates will develop the level of medical services provided in Bahrain and the GCC.
