Committed to Patient Safety 

In February 2019, Emiri decree no. 14 was issued to redefine the Ministry of Public Health's organizational structure in Qatar. This decree dissolved the Qatar Council for Healthcare Practitioners and established the Department of Healthcare Professions as the sole authority responsible for regulating healthcare practitioners in the State of Qatar. 

In accordance with the National Health Strategy for 2018-2022, the healthcare sector in Qatar is experiencing continuous growth, with numerous new healthcare facilities opening in both the public and private sectors. This expansion has resulted in a rise in the number of healthcare practitioners. As a result, there has been a significant increase in licensing applications from healthcare professionals seeking to work in Qatar's healthcare sector. The Department of Healthcare Professions (DHP) has implemented comprehensive plans to expedite the licensing process for all newly recruited healthcare practitioners.
