8 More Mental Health Clinics To Be Open
Director of the Primary Health Care Central Department at the Ministry of Health Dr. Dina Al-Dubaib has unveiled a plan to open eight mental health clinics in primary health care centers; thereby, increasing the total number of such clinics in the country to 68, reports Al-Anba daily. In a statement to the daily, Al-Dubaib affirmed the department is keen on providing these clinics in all primary care centers in residential areas to facilitate access to services and reduce the treatment gap; considering their importance at the individual and societal levels.
She also confirmed the conclusion of the progressive mental health course, which is held annually to train and qualify family doctors in the field of mental health. She said the course aims to integrate mental health services into the services provided in primary health care centers and expand them, in order to raise the awareness of citizens and expatriates on the provision of integrated health care for them. She stressed that this is in implementation of the highest international standards and recommendations regarding primary health care services, which are considered the first gateway to receiving patients. She clarified that the course is part of the Mental Health Program — one of the important primary health care programs.
