The accreditation followed a comprehensive PSFHI assessment of the hospital\u2019s facilities and operations. The highest Level 4 accreditation demonstrates exceptional performance in patient safety, clinical quality, and healthcare governance. SKMCA\u2019s alignment with the WHO\u2019s framework highlights a consistent commitment to delivering the highest standards of patient care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Aref Ali Abdulla Al Shehhi, CEO of The Medical Office, commented, \u201cSKMCA\u2019s WHO accreditation is evidence of our unwavering commitment to global standards, patient safety, and clinical excellence. This achievement reflects our strategic focus on embedding patient safety and clinical excellence at the core of healthcare delivery across our centres of care.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are deeply honoured to be recognised by the World Health Organization at the highest level of the PSFHI programme. This achievement is a direct result of the commitment, professionalism, and unity of our staff across all departments. Most importantly, this milestone means our patients are receiving care aligned with the highest international safety and quality standards,\u201d stated Mr Khamis Al Mansoori, CEO of SKMCA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Patient Safety Friendly Hospital Initiative (PSFHI) is a global WHO framework designed to evaluate hospitals based on rigorous criteria covering leadership, safe clinical practices, patient rights, infection prevention, medication management, and continuous quality improvement. Level 4 accreditation is awarded only to hospitals that demonstrate exceptional, organisation-wide excellence across all domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SKMCA\u2019s accomplishment reinforces its position as a national leader in patient safety and healthcare quality. The organisation remains committed to continuous advancement and to sustaining the high standards that earned this international recognition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sheikh Khalifa Medical City &#8211; Ajman (SKMCA), governed by The Medical Office, a subsidiary of PureHealth, the largest healthcare group in the Middle East, has been awarded Level 4 accreditation under \u00a0National Patient Safety Friendly Hospital Initiative (PSFHI), which was launched by the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) in collaboration with the World Health &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":87593,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[5833,5832],"class_list":["post-87592","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-safety-accreditation","tag-skmca"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
