A New Era in the Collaboration Between Oman and DTI Foundation for Organ Donation
As part of the collaboration project between the Ministry of Health of Oman and DTI Foundation, a delegation of international organ donation experts recently visited the country to provide consulting to hospitals with the aim of improving organ donation practices. This visit focused on key hospitals such as Medical City for Military and Security Services, Khowla Hospital, and Sultan Qaboos University Hospital.
A significant breakthrough was achieved this year, as the number of organ donations in Oman doubled compared to 2023, marking a major step forward in organ donation practices. The experts also had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Ahmed bin Salim Al-Mandhari, Secretary General of Health Planning and Regulations, in a meeting that fostered the exchange of experiences and highlighted the improvements made through the National Organ Donation Program.
This progress is complemented by the success of the second edition of the TPM course in Oman, which has concluded with a total of 43 new TPMs trained. Big things are expected to come to Oman in the future, with continuous improvements in the field of organ donation and transplantation.
To continue this growth and collaboration, DTI Foundation has signed an agreement with the Ministry of Health of Oman to ensure ongoing collaboration in the future. The signing ceremony took place during Omani Organ Donation Day, a day that highlighted the shared commitment to strengthen organ donation practices in the Sultanate of Oman.
These actions mark the beginning of a fruitful collaboration between Oman and DTI Foundation, with the common goal of saving lives and improving healthcare systems.
