Fitness to Practise for Healthcare Professionals
Course Description
Fitness to Practise for Healthcare Professionals (UAE) is a CPD course designed to help practitioners understand how fitness to practise is defined, assessed, and maintained in the UAE healthcare system.
Fitness to practise is more than clinical competence — it encompasses professional behaviour, ethical integrity, communication, reflection, and accountability. The Department of Health (DOH), Dubai Health Authority (DHA), and Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) each require healthcare professionals to demonstrate that they are not only technically capable but also trustworthy, self-aware, and compliant with professional standards.
This course explores how fitness to practise is evaluated, what can trigger concerns, and how professionals can respond effectively through reflection, insight, and remediation. It provides practical strategies to maintain public confidence and demonstrate readiness for safe, ethical, and culturally aligned healthcare practice in the UAE.
