Abu Dhabi steps up healthcare readiness for emergencies and disasters

The exhibition held alongside the World Congress on Military Medicine in Abu Dhabi attracted wide participation from medical and military organisations and institutions. Participants showcased a range of specialised projects, initiatives and innovations in healthcare and military medicine, highlighting the latest technologies and medical solutions aimed at improving treatment services, strengthening emergency response and enhancing preparedness for crises and disasters.

The exhibition provided participating organisations with a platform to present their projects to an international gathering of experts, specialists and decision-makers in military medicine. It also offered an opportunity to showcase technologies and solutions designed to improve healthcare quality and modernise the delivery of medical services, particularly in field settings and exceptional circumstances.

The Abu Dhabi model

Dr Salama Al Tamimi, Executive Director of the Emergency Preparedness and Response Sector at the Abu Dhabi Public Health Centre (ADPHC), said: "In Abu Dhabi, we believe that the readiness of a healthcare system is measured not only by the speed of its emergency response, but also by its ability to anticipate, prepare for and manage risks efficiently.

"With this in mind, we continue to work with our partners to develop a smart, interconnected healthcare ecosystem that brings together different medical functions, from technology to emergency services.
