Healthcare Leadership Program

The HLP trains and places family medicine doctors currently practicing in Armenia and ready to serve in rural regions as highly skilled healthcare leaders. Its goal is to build trust in the primary healthcare system and ensure equitable access to quality healthcare services.

Pathway

Pillars

Doctor-leaders develop leadership skills to manage medical institutions, collaborate with non-governmental organizations, and participate in the development and implementation of regional and state healthcare strategies.

Doctor-leaders collaborate with community members to identify their healthcare perceptions, cultural habits, and unique needs in order to design healthcare initiatives that align with the community's values and goals.

Doctor-leaders utilize quality improvement tools and evidence-based approaches to enhance the quality of service delivery in their medical institutions and developing the leadership capacities necessary to drive sustainable and significant changes within their communities.

Doctor-leaders develop skills in utilizing professional literature, enhancing professional competencies, and applying evidence-based medicine (with the support of our strategic partner, HENAR Foundation).
