HAMAD Medical Corporation (HMC) and Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) recently held a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signing ceremony at Bayt Al-Dhiyafah, Hamad Bin Khalifa Medical City.
Hamad Nasser Abdulla Al Khalifa, HMC’s Chief of Health Facilities Development and acting chief of Business Services; and Faisal Mohammed Al Emadi, chief executive officer (CEO) of QRCS, signed the agreement in the presence of several HMC executive leaders and a delegation from QRCS.
The MoU aims to fund and support HMC-wide improvement projects that pass the careful review and assessment conducted by QRCS and HMC.
The agreement also brings forward many collaboration opportunities between the two organisations, which focus on implementing HMC improvement projects that enhance patient experience, improve facility and patient care environment, develop better patient care and promote the welfare and engagement of staff.
Commenting on the agreement, Khalifa said, “This MoU is designed to benefit patients who need our help. The partnership with QRCS will allow us to bring more improvement projects into fruition and walk the extra mile to serve our stakeholders better.”

partnership between QRCS and HMC, which culminated in a successful response to the COVID-19 outbreak and admirably concerted emergency medical services (EMS) efforts at stadiums during FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.
“With this MoU, we look forward to a further step towards stronger collaboration inspired by the parameters of Qatar National Vision 2030,” he said.
