Dubai: The Dubai Health Authority (DHA) on Monday announced the introduction of the first comprehensive immunisation services policy for Dubai with a view to strengthen the functioning of immunisation services for the health sector across the emirate.
The introduction of the policy would ensure that every health facility or hospital, whether government or private, that administers these vaccines follows a certain set of rules and regulations, said Laila Al Jassmi,CEO of Health Policy and Strategy at the DHA.
"The policy stems from DHA's wider aim to improve public health services in the emirate and is in line with the objectives of the Dubai Health Strategy 2011 to 2013," she said.
