Muscat-May 20, 2013: Reinforcing their commitment to health related initiatives, Bank Sohar partnered with the Directorate General of Health Services in organising an immunization drive in the North Batinah Region.
Health plays a very important role in the every person's life and the Ministry of Health have been constantly involved in conducting a varied number of events and activities to spread awareness and encourage good health among the people. Bank Sohar partnered with the Directorate General of Health Services in the North Batinah region to raise awareness about the benefits of immunization and how important it is, for the development of children.
"Since the inception of Bank Sohar, we have been active in supporting the initiatives of the Ministry of Health, organised and participated in the events that highlighted the need for healthcare and encouraged a healthy lifestyle," said Mr. R. Narasimhan, DGM & Head of Retail Banking at Bank Sohar.
