Dubai: The Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP), in collaboration with the College of Nursing and Midwifery at Mohammed Bin Rashid University of Medicine and Health Sciences, recently organised a three-day comprehensive workshop targeting participants in the National Mentorship Programme for Nursing and Midwifery Research.
Hosted by MoHAP’s National Committee for Nursing and Midwifery in Dubai, the event aimed to enhance the skills and capabilities of nursing and midwifery staff in conducting directed research studies under the mentorship of scientific research experts. During the gathering, trainees and their mentors discussed ways to develop a mentorship plan as they revised the programme’s requirements and goals.
The National Programme for Nursing and Midwifery Research was launched as part of the Ministry’s “Nebras: My Journey in the World of Nursing and Midwifery Research” initiative, which was rolled out in mid-June.
Additionally, 82 nurses and midwives from various health authorities, such as Emirates Health Services, Dubai Academic Health Corporation, Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA), and Dubai Police Health Centre, took part in the workshop.
As many as 25 health research experts from prestigious academic institutions across the UAE, including the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU), Fatima College of Health Sciences (FCHS), University of Sharjah, Higher Colleges of Technology, Gulf Medical College, and University of Wellington Dubai, were also present.
