November 15, 2013

The Ministry of Health in Oman has implemented the nation's first health education TV channel, Hayah, powered by Scala digital signage software, according to an announcement from Scala. The digital signage network was developed by Scala partner Anzyma, a digital signage company in Oman.

"With more than 10 hours of original, broadcast-quality health education content, this health education channel has the potential to revolutionize people's lives and benefit their everyday lifestyle and health," said Adnan Al Raisi, IT (Scala) project manager, Ministry of Health, said in the announcement. "Hayah's goal is to create a health education channel which provides viewers with engaging, fun and informative content that impacts their everyday lives."

The channel engages close to 150,000 people every month, including patients, visitors and staff working in health centers across the Muscat region, Scala said. This region covers 23 health centers that display the Hayah channel.
