The Daily Tribune, 25 August 2024: Government Hospitals have earned accreditation for three additional medical specialties from the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties, bringing the total number of accredited programmes to 16.

The newly accredited specialties include ophthalmology, emergency medicine, and dermatology.

They join previously accredited areas such as internal medicine, general surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology, paediatrics, diagnostic radiology, neuroscience, anaesthesia, anatomical pathology, psychiatry, paediatric surgery, urology, orthopaedic surgery, and otolaryngology-head and neck surgery.

This recent accreditation reflects the hospitals’ ongoing effort to enhance healthcare quality in Bahrain and demonstrates their emphasis on medical training as a key element in developing skilled professionals.

The hospitals aim to offer a high-quality educational environment, providing trainees with the expertise needed for safe professional practice.

They work to meet both institutional and programme standards, fully leveraging available resources for specialised medical training, under the supervision of bodies such as the Arab Board of Health Specialisations and the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties.
