The Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) has announced that Rawdat Al Khail Health Centre will now return to normal operations - with limited separate space for Covid-19 patients - after being dedicated as a Covid-19 health centre for the past three years.
With vaccination rates increasing and Covid-19 infection rates decreasing, the health centre will now resume all normal services, including family medicine appointments, routine check-ups, screenings, dental care and wellness services. While face-to-face visits will be fully restored, the centre will offer virtual consultations to those patients who prefer it.
"We are pleased to welcome our patients back to the health centre for all their healthcare needs," said Dr Samya Abdulla, executive director of operations, PHCC. "The pandemic challenged us in many ways, but we adapted and continue to prioritise the health and safety of our patients and staff, while ensuring that we are delivering the highest quality in primary care services."
Throughout its services as a Covid-19 health centre, Rawdat Al Khail implemented several measures to ensure the health and safety of patients and staff, including increased cleaning protocols, mandatory mask-wearing, social distancing measures and dedicated isolation rooms.
"We are proud of the resilience and dedication of our staff, who have worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic to provide essential services to our community," said Dr Abdulla. "As we return the health centre to its normal operations, we remain committed to providing safe, accessible, and compassionate care to all our patients."
