Her Highness Princess Hissa Bint Trad Al-Shalan, wife of King Abdullah, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, sponsors the celebration that will be launched by the Ministry of Health at the King Saud Medical City in Riyadh. The event celebrates the two-year anniversary of the launch of the MOH’s Domestic Medicine Program, which to date has helped more than 7,000 patients Kingdom wide.
MOH’s official spokesman, Dr. Khalid Marglani clarified that the Princess’s patronage is a clear sign of her dedication to health and social events and patients, through her role as the head of the National Domestic Medicine Charity.
With the generous support of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, the Ministry of Health has established a number of vital healthcare programs to serve the Kingdom’s citizens. The goal of the Domestic Medicine Program is to provide healthcare services to patients in their own homes. The program helps patients to recover and rehabilitate physically, psychologically and socially while preventing the complications sometimes associated with long hospital stays. The program also helps patients to receive any medical equipment and other support needed for their outpatient care. Under the program, qualified medical teams deliver a variety of services to specific categories of patients in their own homes, in accordance with MOH methods and standards.
This program, which to date has helped more than 7,000 patients, meets both the public’s needs and our leaders’ expectations by helping the Ministry provide the best possible quality of healthcare services to all.
