    Description
    Description

    • Supporting countries to develop and sustain health systems
    • Planning and implementing health programs in developing countries
    • Supporting countries to develop their healthcare systems
    • Supporting healthcare projects in low-income countries
    • Helping countries develop their healthcare systems
    • Supporting healthcare system development in low-income countries
    • Control and monitoring of hospitals under construction according to the United Nations
    • program Transferring patients from developing countries to complete the course of treatment
    • Building, equipping and renovating hospitals according to the United Nations program in developing countries

    Implementation of the Project/Activity

    Given that this department utilizes a team of experienced professionals in hospital construction, renovation, and equipment provision, and the department's office is located in the country of Dubai, it will be ready to collaborate with the United Nations program. The experienced professionals will be dispatched to countries recognized by the United Nations, upon receipt of a program from the United Nations.

    Arrangements for Capacity-Building and Technology Transfer

    Design-Build-Finance-Operate (DBFO) model: In this model, a private company or consortium is responsible for designing, building, financing, and operating the hospital. This model allows for a single entity to be responsible for the entire project, which can streamline the process and reduce costs.
    - Public-Private Partnership (PPP): PPPs involve collaboration between public and private sector entities to finance, design, build, and operate a hospital. This model allows for sharing of risks and responsibilities between the public and private sectors.
    - BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) model: In this model, a private company builds the hospital and operates it for a specified period (usually 15-30 years). At the end of the contract, the hospital is transferred to the government or a public entity.
    - EPC (Engineering-Procurement-Construction) model: In this model, an EPC contractor is responsible for designing, procuring, and constructing the hospital. The government or a public entity may also provide funding for the project.

    Coordination mechanisms

    Dr. Abasat Mirzaei, Associate Professor of Healthcare Management, serves as the department head. As a member of the academic faculty at a university in Iran, he brings a wealth of management expertise and exceptional project management skills to his role, with a focus on hospital construction and renovation projects.
    This department will establish, provide medical equipment, and standardize hospitals worldwide and in developing countries, in collaboration with the United Nations. It will be established in countries or regions recognized by the United Nations as developing or in need of assistance, and all programs will be submitted to the United Nations for approval prior to implementation. The department will be funded to execute these programs.

    * Develop a punch list of items that need to be addressed
    * Conduct a final inspection to ensure that all work has been completed in accordance with plans and specifications
    * Obtain an occupancy permit from local authorities

    **Stage 6: Post-Occupancy Evaluation (Evaluation Phase)**
