A FUTURE MADE OF SYNERGIES: the hospital where academia and industry come together for a better and healthier world

February 02, 2023

The Oman International Hospital (OIH) and the Coimbra Higher School of Health Technology (ESTeSC) signed a protocol yesterday, with a view to carrying out internships for ESTeSC members at OIH facilities, in Oman, the establishment of specific training programs for technicians and nurses, as well as the implementation of a certification program in radiology, consolidating the excellence of OIH's imaging equipment, where, among many others, the use of low doses of radiation stands out, with clear benefits for patients and staff.

This important protocol will benefit from the endorsement of the Med Academy, recently implemented at the OIH, and, in this way, will establish the pyramid of the future that brings together the academic, hospital and industrial environments. Remember that Med Academy is based on three fundamental pillars: Onboarding and Lifelong Training, Patient Experience and Accreditation Process.
