Sheikh Mansour said: “The Hamdan Bin Rashid Cancer Hospital will break new ground
in elevating cancer care standards, reaffirming Dubai Health’s commitment to advancing
health for humanity. Together, we will honour the legacy of the late Sheikh Hamdan Bin
Rashid Al Maktoum and realise Dubai’s ambition to be a global leader in healthcare
innovation, ensuring access to world-class medical services for all.”

Facilities and services

The hospital, located in the Al Jaddaf area, is envisaged to host 50 clinics, 30 clinical
research areas, 60 infusion rooms, 10 urgent care rooms, 5 radiotherapy rooms, and
116 inpatient beds. Enhancing the healing environment for patients and their families
will be 19 gardens distributed across the hospital campus. Stantec, a global leader in
sustainable design and engineering, has been appointed as the architect for the project.

As part of Dubai Health, the first integrated academic health system in Dubai, the
comprehensive cancer hospital will benefit from a multidisciplinary team, including
specialised nursing, offering patients a full spectrum of care services in one location,
from early diagnosis to treatment and supportive care. Aligning with Dubai Health’s
‘Patient First’ promise, select treatments and services will be made available to patients
in the comfort of their homes, ensuring an easy and accessible continuum of care.

Dr Raja Easa Al Gurg said: “We extend our deepest gratitude to all our generous
donors for upholding the spirit of giving, echoing the legacy of the late Sheikh Hamdan
bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The hospital is a collective endeavour, a testament to our
shared humanity, uniting us against a global challenge.”

New model of care

The hospital will spearhead a transformative shift in care delivery, moving from a
traditional in-patient model to an ambulatory model of care. This shift includes
integrating primary care with diagnosis and treatment to offer detection and intervention
at earlier stages of the patient’s journey.

Research and clinical trials will be at the heart of the hospital’s array of services,
fostering opportunities for discovering the best patient outcomes through personalised,
patient-centric, evidence-based care.
