A study presented at a Saudi Society of Health Administration meeting in Riyadh has suggested around 90% of directors of health ministry hospitals do not hold administrative qualifications, Saudi Gazette has reported. "A third of medical directors do not hold bachelor's degree while 89% of them think that they don't need academic degrees to run hospitals because this is something acquired through experience," said Dr Humood Al-Shammary, who conducted the study and who runs Dr Abdul Rahman Al-Mishari Hospital. The meeting recommended a training programme to qualify medical directors and keep them updated on the latest developments in this field.
