As part of its ongoing commitment to advancing medical education and elevating the training standards for resident doctors, the Syrian Board of Medical Specializations (SBOMS) has announced the establishment of a specialized department focused on medical education quality. This department is designed to strengthen the implementation of academic accreditation standards in the teaching hospitals and to ensure that training programs align with the latest global benchmarks.
The establishment of this department marks a pivotal step in ensuring that residents receive top-tier professional training. SBOMS‘s quality teams have initiated field visits to several specialized hospitals, including recent assessments in pediatric hospitals. These visits involve comprehensive evaluations of the training programs and their adherence to international accreditation standards. During these tours, both strengths and areas needing improvement are identified to create a learning environment that enables residents to achieve optimal outcomes.
The Syrian Board of Medical Specialization (SBOMS) emphasizes that enhancing medical education is a fundamental pillar of its strategy to advance the healthcare sector in Syria. By equipping resident doctors with the skills to deliver advanced medical care that addresses the needs of local patients and aligns with global standards, this initiative seeks to overcome challenges in the training process, thereby contributing directly to improving the quality of healthcare services nationwide
This initiative is not merely aimed at developing medical education; it represents a crucial building block in the creation of a robust and sustainable healthcare system. Such a system is designed to meet future health challenges effectively and enhance the overall quality of healthcare services provided.
