AL AIN, UAE, July 23, 2016

Abu Dhabi General Services Company (Musanada) has so far completed 32 per cent of the work on the Dh4.4-billion ($1.20 billion) new Al Ain Hospital.

"The new hospital will provide integrated medical services to everyone living in Al Ain City in accordance with latest international standards and practices in the area of health facilities," Engineer Mohamed Al Shuweihi, Musanada’s healthcare acting director, was quoted as saying by a Wam report.

"This will help to enhance the healthcare sector in Al Ain city and the emirate of Abu Dhabi in general, while addressing the needs of the growing population of that region."

Once complete the hospital will be handed over to Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (Seha).

The hospital’s concrete and steel structure has been completed, along with the primary substation which is being handed over to Al Ain Distribution Company. The main refrigeration equipment have been installed at the utility building along with 25 percent of the facade work.

The hospital project is located at Al Jimi in Al Ain city, and stretches over 347,000 sq m. It consists of the main hospital building, a 1,500-vehicle parking facility, a logistics centre, a 60-MW primary substation, as well as other facilities and advanced medical treatment services that will meet the needs of the community in that area.

It will also include 104 advanced specialised clinics, 17 radiology rooms for X-ray, CT Scan and MRI services, as well as 22 specialised rooms for endoscopy procedures and diagnosis.

The hospital will be supplied with state-of-the-art medical and technical equipment keeping in pace with latest advances and developments in the area of diagnosis and treatment, providing more assurance of a successful and comfortable treatment process within the minimum timeframe.

The hospital will have 719 beds, including 484 beds for general medicine, surgery, children’s ward and maternity; 67 for ICU; 142 for medical rehabilitation; and 26 for VIP patients and royal suites.

Furthermore, the design employs the latest international medical standards that provide an ideal environment for healing, while simultaneously taking into consideration the privacy and traditions of the UAE.
