History edit

Sheikh Khalifa Medical City was created in 2005 as a result of the merger of all publicly held healthcare organisations in Abu Dhabi island. The merged entities were:

  • Abu Dhabi Central Hospital - built in the late 1960s and the oldest hospital in Abu Dhabi, it served as a 200-bed hospital until it was scaled down in 2003 to an emergency centre and an outpatient dialysis unit
  • Abu Dhabi Psychiatric Hospital - a 163-bed facility
  • Abu Dhabi Rehabilitation Center - an 88-bed facility that was serving mainly as a nursing home for the elderly and people with special needs
  • Al Jazeera Hospital - built in the 1970s, a 300-bed acute care medical facility which was open for expatriates who lived on Abu Dhabi island only
  • Preventive Medicine Clinic
  • Primary Healthcare Clinics - nine clinics dispersed across the island
  • Sheikh Khalifa Medical Center - commissioned in 2000, it is a 250-bed acute care medical facility which was open only for UAE nationals

The new healthcare conglomerate adopted the brand of the newest facility, “Sheikh Khalifa Medical Center”.

In 2007, SKMC came under the management of Cleveland Clinic.[3]
