Musanada completes Al Rahba unit revamp

ABU DHABI, July 29, 2017

The Abu Dhabi General Services Company (Musanada) has completed the renovation and expansion of the emergency department at Al Rahba Hospital, which will be handed over to Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (Seha) in the third quarter of 2017.

This forms part of Musanada’s efforts to deliver projects that will achieve the primary objectives of Abu Dhabi Plan in the area of healthcare, aiming to provide high-quality health services in line with best international standards, reported Wam, the Emirates official news agency.

"The Dh44-million ($12 million) emergency department renovation and expansion project at Al Rahba Hospital will meet the needs of residents in Al Rahba region, providing them with quality health services, and is aligned to the steady population increase across the neighbouring regions around the hospital," said Yahya Al Ali, Musanada’s acting Infrastructure and Housing director.

"Engaging an experienced team, Musanada has completed all the required project work in line with highest international standards and Seha’s requirements. This was achieved without interrupting the required services for patients, medical staff or hospital clients, while fully observing safety requirements and taking into account best sustainability criteria that focus on reduction of energy and water consumption following the adoption of a contemporary environment-friendly design that ensures an appropriate healing and comfortable environment for patients," he added.

Eissa Saif Al Rumaithi, executive director of Al Rahba Hospital, said: "The emergency department renovation and expansion project at Al Rahba Hospital comes in line with the efforts made by Seha to improve the infrastructure across the various healthcare facilities in order to provide world-class, quality-based healthcare and curative services in all of its outcomes."

"Aiming to attain highest quality levels in the services it delivers, Al Rahba hospital seeks to consistently improve therapeutic services, ensuring they are readily available to all patients. The emergency department renovation project will help enhance the hospital’s position and ensure the provision of high-quality medical services to patients in a shorter time," he continued.

Stretching over an overall area of 2,800 sq m, the project aims to enhance the efficiency of the emergency department by optimally redesigning the available space, allowing an improved capacity to treat larger numbers of patients approaching the hospital.

Equipping the hospital with state-of-the-art medical equipment and methods, the project will enable a better coverage and provision of health services to larger numbers of the population across the various regions of the emirate of Abu Dhabi. The project scope included the trauma centre and the fast-track preliminary examination centre.

Following completion of the renovation and expansion works and the testing and commissioning phase, the emergency department will provide the necessary emergency healthcare services to individuals, children and pregnant women.
