The formal unveiling was held under the auspices of Dr Ahmed bin Salim al Mandhari, Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Health for Planning and Health Regulation. The NRH is a centre for healing, education and research that aims to shape the future of rehabilitative sciences in Oman. By combining clinical excellence with academic innovation, it stands as a model for how academic institutions can drive sustainable healthcare development and elevate rehabilitation standards locally and regionally. An initiative of the National University of Science and Technology (NU), NRH is built on the principles of integrated, patient-centred rehabilitation and aims to reinforce its role as a cornerstone of Oman's evolving healthcare landscape. NRH has already begun delivering essential services to individuals in need of therapeutic recovery. The ceremony brought together senior representatives from the Ministry of Health (MoH), ambassadors, healthcare professionals and dignitaries from both local and international sectors - reflecting the broad support and shared vision to elevate rehabilitation services in the Sultanate of Oman. 'The establishment of NRH reflects the strategic foresight of the university in responding to Oman's growing need for integrated, high-quality rehabilitation services. Rooted in the country's long-term healthcare goals outlined in Oman Vision 2040 and the Tenth Five-Year Plan, NRH aims to create a lasting impact through a holistic and inclusive model of care,' said Dr Ali bin Saud al Bimani, Vice-Chancellor of the National University of Science and Technology. 'This House embodies our collective vision, dedication and unwavering commitment to advancing healthcare and improving the quality of life for our society. It is a beacon of hope for those in need of rehabilitation services, offering state-of-the-art facilities and comprehensive care that enable individuals to regain independence and reintegrate into society with dignity,' he added. Dr Al Bimani also acknowledged the collaborative efforts that led to the creation of the centre and lauded the instrumental support from Dr Hilal bin Ali al Sabti, Minister of Health, and Dr P Mohamed Ali, Chairman of the Board of Directors, underscoring the House as a realised promise of collaborative service to the nation. Dr Fadwa al Araimi, who reflected on the deeper purpose of the centre, said, "The National Rehabilitation House is a health centre and a space for healing and returning to life with a new spirit and renewed hope. It reflects our belief in comprehensive care that restores dignity and enhances the quality of life.'
