DUBAI — For the comfort and privacy of patients, the Department of Health and Medical Services (Dohms) announced the setting up of 22 luxury suites at the Dubai Hospital yesterday.
During the inauguration of the Dubai Hospital Pharmacy, Qadhi Saeed Al Murooshid, Director-General of Dohms said that the luxury suites would be available to whoever can afford them, be it expatriates or UAE nationals. “At the moment, there are no future plans to lower the medical fees,” he said.
The luxury suites are under construction on the 11th floor of the hospital and will be available from the month of December at a price of Dh1,500 per day. The charges cover the cost of medicine. “These charges are still less than those charged by private hospitals,” he said, adding that only a few such rooms would be reserved for dignitaries. “We are sure that women will welcome this new addition at the hospital,” he added. “The launch of new services for Dubai Hospital aims at modernising the services in Dohms hospitals, and making patients as comfortable as they would be in private hospitals,” said Qadhi Murooshid.
