Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi Hospital (CCAD), located on Al Sowah Island near the heart of the city, will offer advanced medical technologies, high-performance facility design and unprecedented levels of patient-centered care. A village concept theme reinforces the Cleveland Clinic's desire to establish a new sense of community at this Middle Eastern location.
The centerpiece building provides a gathering place, and the smaller surrounding structures house medical specializations. Key departmental groupings create beneficial efficiencies for staff, and skillfully employed wayfinding elements with sleek glass walls and color-coding replace typical winding hallways. Indoor water elements and abundant glazing (with stunning views of rooftop gardens) provide an atmosphere that promotes wellness and recovery.
