Greetings from the “Department of Healthcare Professions (DHP)”,

In line with DHP's responsibility to improve the healthcare sector in the State of Qatar, and in its commitment to organizing the necessary procedures to ensure patient safety and the competency of healthcare practitioners; it is mandatory for any healthcare practitioner, before commencing a training/ work under supervision period — whether to complete the required years of practical experience or to cover a period of a break in practice — to obtain prior approval from the DHP.
