His Highness Shaikh Isa bin Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Isa bin Salman Educational Charitable Trust, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Labour Fund (Tamkeen), has announced the launch of the largest support bundle for the healthcare sector.
This comes following the directives of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to increase support for the employment of Bahraini doctors.
The bundle, which aims to support over 700 Bahraini doctors and nurses, includes five main initiatives covering the cost of obtaining board certification for Bahraini doctors while supporting the wages of doctors working in the private sector during their training, and supporting international fellowship programs for Bahrainis wishing to obtain specializations.
The bundle also includes support for graduating Bahraini nurses with bachelor’s degrees, in addition to supporting them to obtain various required specializations.
HH Shaikh Isa bin Salman stressed the importance of investing in national talent working in the health sector in the Kingdom of Bahrain and creating quality opportunities for them through continuous training and development, and adopting and implementing plans and initiatives that contribute to the sustainability of the health sector and improving its services, as one of the important sectors that receives constant attention from His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, and HRH Prince Salman.
