GCC — Nursing
Qatar licenses internationally trained nurses through a single national qualifying exam: the DHP Registered General Nurse Qualifying Examination, delivered by Prometric under the Department of Healthcare Professions (DHP) at the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH). The pathway is centralised, well-documented, and supported by mandatory DataFlow Primary Source Verification. Qatar's expanding healthcare sector, anchored by Hamad Medical Corporation and Sidra Medicine, continues to recruit nurses from South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and beyond.
