Medical appointments for People of Determination with intellectual and developmental disabilities can be concerning for parents or caregivers, the patient, and medical professionals. The Unified Healthcare Providers Program empowers medical staff with knowledge and evidence-based techniques, that can help them understand POD patients, and deliver compassionate healthcare, that is tailored to their specific needs.

Mr Talal Al Hashemi, National Director of Special Olympics UAE, observed.

The National Director of Special Olympics UAE further added that, “This program is in line with the Abu Dhabi Strategy for People of Determination 2020-2024 which was launched by President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. It contributes directly to the healthcare pillar of the strategy, which aims to enhance the availability and quality of medical services offered to POD.” 

In hospitals and clinics, the Unified Healthcare Providers Program offers training to qualified medical teams and ancillary healthcare professionals. Medical and healthcare institutions must meet specific requirements in order to achieve the status, and staff members from various administrative and medical departments and specialties must attend a 9-hour training session and pass the final exams.
