How The View Hospital is revolutionising Qatars healthcare sector_360P

Transcript

00:00Qatar is well on its way to diversify away from oil and gas, and authorities are keen on ramping

00:05up the health sector to do just that. Here in Doha, the newly opened The View Hospital has

00:09become the epicenter of healthcare digitization and technology, paving the way for Qatar to become

00:14a regional leader in the health sector. This is the flagship hospital for elegans here.

00:22And but it's one part of our vision of supporting the not only the needs of the citizens of Qatar

00:33and Doha in particular, but the broader health economy as well by bringing the latest technology,

00:41new skills, and a new capacity into the healthcare market as well. Not to compete

00:49with government hospitals and existing established hospitals,

00:52but to work in partnership with them and to collaborate with them as well.

01:02With 244 beds, including a number of presidential and royal suites, as well as a range of cutting

01:08edge technology across various departments, The View has caught the attention of governments

01:13worldwide. Spain's ambassador to Qatar, Javier Sanchez, says his country is keen on joining the

01:19state's new concept of healthcare. He said it's clear that Qatar is prioritizing patient care over

01:23institutions, a modern approach that could revolutionize healthcare worldwide. If you

01:28look back to what's been going on in the country, you see again that in the last 20 years,

01:33Qatar has been going through an extremely intense process of transformation and in a good way. You

01:39have a number of tools, not only what we have seen by the Ministry of Public Health, also the

01:44Ministry of Technology and Communication, the digitalization of health, a concept which is much

01:50more focused on the patient care rather than on the institution. I think that this is an extremely

01:57modern concept which is going to set a path for the rest to follow. Spain wants to be a part of

02:02that process. Fatma Salari, Doha News, The View Hospital.
