Arab Health eBook

Arab Health Ebook 2011

In the GCC, the healthcare workforce is very diverse in terms of culture and training backgrounds, which induce differences when communicating to patients. Recent studies show that despite the needs for comprehensive medical services in the region, there is still a gap in communication and fundamental clinical skills of healthcare practitioners. A minimum standard of competency and expertise should be created to ensure quality and patient safety. This strain is further challenged as a large portion of the healthcare workforce is transient in the region, creating a high turnover rate.

In this month’s issue of the Arab Health e-book we speak to Dr Sarper H. Tanli, Executive Director of Methodist International, Europe-Middle East-Africa, about the role of simulation training in educating the region’s healthcare workforce.

I hope you enjoy reading this issue of Arab Health e-book, and feel free to comment on any of the articles.
