Since the spring of 2008, the hospital has been managed by Johns Hopkins Medical International.Al Rahba Hospital was the first public hospital in the UAE to be accredited by the Joint Commission International. More importantly, the hospital was granted JCI re-accreditation in 2009, confirming its credo of continuous improvement in patient care. Al Rahba was also rated “Best Hospital in Quality Services” for 2008 and 2009 among public hospitals of Abu Dhabi by the Health Authority of Abu Dhabi. The hospital is located just a few blocks from the E11 highway connecting Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It has a very busy and highly competent emergency department which serves over 200 visitors per day. A multi-slice CT scanner will be installed in early 2010 to provide even better emergency services, especially in trauma cases.
