What is the UAE’s new initiative involving virtual clinics and emergency response training?

The United Arab Emirates has launched a new phase of community virtual clinics and emergency response training under the Emirates National Medical Preparedness and Response Programme – Jaheziya, aimed at improving healthcare access and strengthening public readiness for emergencies. Through the Emirati Doctors Initiative, physicians will provide remote medical consultations and health awareness guidance while volunteers deliver on-ground support in residential communities. The programme will also train thousands of residents in first aid, bleeding control, and injury response to help them assist during emergencies until ambulance teams arrive. What do you think — would community-based medical training like this help residents feel more confident in handling emergencies?
