The Corporate Nursing Division at Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA) has been formally accredited by the American Nursing Credentialing Centre (ANCC).

The ANCC, a subsidiary of the American Nurses Association (ANA) one of the largest and most prestigious international bodies, recognised SEHA for their excellence as a provider of Nursing Continuous Professional Development (NCPD) activities.

The certificate of excellence was awarded to the nursing division after an in-depth preparation and evaluation process, in addition to benchmarking SEHA against high-ranking American nursing organisations.

Speaking about the accolade, Aysha Ali Al Mahri, Group Chief Nursing Officer at SEHA, said, "Receiving this prestigious award is an important achievement that enhances nursing excellence and patient outcomes while providing a safe and positive work environment at SEHA. This achievement highlights how important it is to us, at SEHA, to provide continuous development, based on quality and international best practice, particularly for our nursing staff."

According to Al Mahri, ANCC’s accreditation will significantly raise the level of classification of health services in the UAE and sustainably promote excellence in nursing and healthcare.

Al Mahri also added that nursing staff need to complete a certain number of credited hours to develop their skills and maintain the speciality certification from the ANCC, helping motivate nurses to continue to improve their own professional skills on a regular basis.
