Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. October 3, 2023: Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, part of the M42 network, proudly announces that the Fatima bint Mubarak Center has received the highly coveted Joint Commission International (JCI) three-year accreditation. This recognition, which is an extension of Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi’s accreditation, reinforces the center's commitment to excellence in healthcare and elevates its status as a pioneer in cutting-edge cancer care in the UAE and wider region.

The SAFER Matrix is a robust tool used by the JCI to identify and categorize risk factors related to the safety of patients, staff, and visitors. The standards intend to promote continuous, systematic and organization-wide improvement in daily performance and in the outcomes of patient care. Receiving this recognition within the first year of operation strengthens Fatima bint Mubarak Center’s position as the benchmark for excellence and world-class care.

 

Dr. Stephen Grobmyer, Institute Chair of the Oncology Institute at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi said: “We are honored that the Fatima bint Mubarak Center – which is a newcomer to the UAE healthcare landscape – has been recognized by the Joint Commission International for enhancing the quality and safety of the healthcare we provide to our patients and the community. This accreditation is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our multidisciplinary teams and their steadfast focus on providing the best possible care to our patients—from day one. Being recognized by the world's preeminent international accreditation body further cements our position as a healthcare leader providing world-class care closer to home.”  

 

Earlier this year, the Fatima bint Mubarak Center achieved another significant international milestone. The center received the LEED Gold from the United States Green Building Council, a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership, showcasing its commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
