"What we need in Abu Dhabi are sector-specific standards for each critical job. By creating
detailed, localised guidelines, we can ensure better performance, more accurate evaluations, and
stronger overall resilience," AlAzizi said.

Guide for Contingencies

For the healthcare sector, the goal was to establish a standard that clearly defined what continuity
meant for each critical health activity, she explained.

"This will improve response capabilities, evaluation precision, and overall preparedness in the
sector. We're working closely with the Department of Health (DOH) to make this happen," AlAzizi
said.

Prioritising patient safety and compliance with regulation, the guide covers all healthcare providers
from pre-hospital care through diagnosis and treatment and critical care.

Once ADCMC starts working with energy and water sectors, it will be partnering with the
Department of Energy and its affiliated companies, AlAzizi said.

"For other sectors, we will work with the relevant authorities-like the Department of Community
Development for social services, or the media and communications regulators for those sectors."
