healthcare graduates
(ABU DHABI)
-
PureHealth
has partnered with the
Emirati Talent
Competitiveness Council to
recruit 250 Emirati
graduates over three years
through the National
Healthcare Program, as part
of efforts to increase the
participation of UAE
nationals in the healthcare
workforce.
The
National Healthcare Program
operates under Nafis, the
UAE's national Emiratization
initiative, and aims to
strengthen links between
educational institutions,
employers, and students. It
provides participants with
access to practical
experience, mentorship,
training, professional
qualifications, and
employment opportunities
during or following their
studies.
Since 2026,
graduates have begun joining
PureHealth Group across
eight healthcare
disciplines: nursing,
physiotherapy, pharmacy,
diagnostic imaging,
anesthesia technology,
medical laboratory sciences,
health information
management, and emergency
medical services.
The
program will be delivered
through PureHealth's Emirati
Development Center (EDC),
which provides training,
mentorship, and career
development opportunities
for Emirati professionals at
different stages of their
careers.
The
three-year partnership,
covering the period from
2026 to 2028, is intended to
expand Emirati
representation in clinical
and healthcare support
roles, particularly in
specialties identified as
priorities for the country's
healthcare sector. It forms
part of wider national
efforts to increase
private-sector employment
opportunities for UAE
nationals.
Rashed Al Qubaisi, Group
Chief Operating Officer of
PureHealth, said:
"Our partnership with Nafis
is a long-term investment in
the UAE’s healthcare future.
Bringing Emirati graduates
into critical clinical and
operational roles
strengthens our capabilities
today while building
leadership capacity for
tomorrow. Through the
Emirati Development Center,
we are equipping Emiratis
with the skills, experience,
and progression
opportunities needed to lead
a resilient, world-class
healthcare system."
PureHealth said the Emirati
Development Center has
supported the career
development of hundreds of
Emirati professionals
through structured learning,
mentorship, and practical
experience. The company aims
to develop 1,000
future-ready Emirati
healthcare leaders by 2030,
in line with Abu Dhabi
Economic Vision 2030.
The partnership is
expected to help develop the
UAE's national healthcare
workforce and support the
government's broader
Emiratization objectives.
