Al Ain: The Oasis Hospital, birthplace of quality healthcare for the nation, introduced on Saturday a design for a new facility that will meet the needs of the Eastern region and beyond for the 21st century.
The move follows instructions of President His Highness Shaikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan and the follow up from General Shaikh Mohammad Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Abu Dhabi Crown Prince and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces.
"The new facility will include patient care that supports the preservation of traditional practices of UAE family life and culture. Oasis Hospital has appointed an advisory board of leading men and women of the local community who will advise and guide the design," said President and CEO David Printy.
He added, "We are now embarking on construction of a complete new 200 bed, state-of-the-art hospital for the 21st century."
