About Dubai Health Authority
The Dubai Health Authority (DHA) was created, in June 2007,
by Law 13 issued by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice
President and Prime Minister of the UAE, Ruler of Dubai, with an expanded
vision to include strategic oversight for the complete health sector in Dubai
and enhance private sector engagement. His Highness Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai and UAE Minister of Finance is the President of
the Dubai Health Authority and His Excellency Humaid Mohammed Obaid Al Qutami
is the chairman of the board of the Dubai Health Authority.
The DHA's aim in Dubai is to provide an accessible,
effective and integrated healthcare system, protect public health and improve
the quality of life within the Emirate. The DHA's mission is to transform Dubai
into a leading healthcare destination by fostering innovative and integrated
care models and by enhancing community engagement.
In addition to overseeing the health sector for the Emirate
of Dubai, the DHA also focuses on providing services through DHA healthcare
facilities including hospitals (Latifa, Dubai, Rashid and Hatta), specialty
centres (e.g. the Dubai Diabetes Center) and DHA primary health centres spread
throughout the Emirate of Dubai.
The main pillars of service delivery at DHA health
facilities are quality, efficiency, patients and staff. It is our aim to
maintain and improve the quality and efficiency of DHA health services. An
important aspect of the service delivery strategy is to focus on patients,
their needs and satisfaction as well as attract, retain, nurture and support
outstanding staff.
Prior to the establishment of the DHA, the Department of
Health and Medical Services (DOHMS), which was established in 1973, was the
functioning authority that almost exclusively focused on health service
delivery.
