Burjeel Holdings PLC, a leading super-specialty healthcare provider in the MENA region, listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, has signed a contract to operate and manage ADNOC's Das Hospital at Das Island. This agreement supports ADNOC's commitment to strengthening emergency preparedness, improving healthcare accessibility, and promoting community wellbeing at Das Island. The new Das Hospital is designed to serve as the primary healthcare and emergency response hub for Das Island residents. With its advanced infrastructure and comprehensive range of services, the facility will provide round-the-clock care for ADNOC's workforce, residents, and emergency medical cases arising from nearby locations. Dr. Ghuwaya Al Neyadi, SVP, Group Medical & Wellbeing, ADNOC, said: 'Through this partnership with Burjeel Holdings, ADNOC's state-of-the-art Das Hospital will provide access to top-tier healthcare and emergency services for our employees, reinforcing our Energy for Wellbeing strategy. Our people are our most important asset and ADNOC will continue to prioritize their wellbeing and foster a healthy working environment.' Burjeel Holdings will oversee all clinical and administrative functions of the hospital. The facility includes a broad range of outpatient specialties—such as general surgery, internal medicine, family medicine, occupational health, ENT, dental, ophthalmology, and cardiac and pulmonary unit. It also houses a fully equipped emergency department with a minor operating room, licensed pharmacies, and a dedicated blood bank. John Sunil, Group CEO of Burjeel Holdings, said: 'We are proud to strengthen our partnership with ADNOC through the management of the new Das Hospital. This initiative reflects our continued commitment to extending advanced, high-quality healthcare to strategic and remote locations. Burjeel Holdings remains dedicated to clinical excellence, innovation, and agile operations in support of ADNOC's vision for a safer and healthier future.' Inpatient care is supported by 23 beds across male and female quarantine and critical care units, with the capability to manage both acute and chronic cases. The facility is further supported by advanced diagnostic imaging including X-ray, CT scan, and ultrasound, along with a dedicated physiotherapy and rehabilitation unit. Purpose-built for resilience and emergency responsiveness, the hospital includes a decontamination unit, ambulance bays, and a helipad to support medical evacuations from Das Island. Tele-consultation and tele-counselling services, vaccination programs, and health education initiatives will further enhance access and continuity of care. The Das Hospital builds upon the foundation of the former Das Medical Center, significantly enhancing healthcare provision on the island. With the integration of inpatient facilities, advanced diagnostic capabilities, and surgical services, the new hospital ushers in a new era of comprehensive, high-quality care for the Das community. It will also serve as the first responder for medical emergencies while supporting preventive and rehabilitative care aligned with ADNOC's occupational health guidelines. The new contract builds on Burjeel Holdings' long-standing partnership with ADNOC, which includes the successful operation and management of Al Dhannah Hospital, one of the largest healthcare facilities in the Al Dhafra region. The hospital will operate as part of an integrated care network, supported by the Group's advanced facilities, including its flagship unit, Burjeel Medical City. Burjeel Holdings' network is equipped with state-of-the-art medical technologies and specialized expertise to manage complex cases across a broad spectrum, including trauma, organ transplantation, women's health, pediatrics, orthopedics, spine surgery, and neurosciences, ensuring continuity of care from remote to tertiary-level settings.

10 UAE Nurses Surprised with Brand-New SUVs Ahead of International Nurses Day
In a heartfelt celebration and a unique gesture of gratitude, ten frontline healthcare professionals were honored with a life-changing surprise. In a special event organized by Burjeel Holdings, kickstarting the International Nurses Day celebrations, these healthcare heroes from across the Group's hospitals and medical centers were presented with a brand-new Toyota RAV4, a gesture of gratitude that left recipients and onlookers deeply moved. The Driving Force Award, an initiative celebrating nursing excellence, acknowledged the compassion, perseverance, and emotional labor that define the nursing profession. With senior leadership, colleagues, and families present, the moment captured the spirit of appreciation for those who work quietly, tirelessly, and with heart. The car keys were handed over by Mr. John Sunil, Group CEO, and Mr. Safeer Ahamed, Group Co-CEO of Burjeel Holdings. In the run-up to International Nurses Day, the Group will go on to honor 100 more exemplary nurses from across its hospitals and medical centers with cash prizes.'We often talk about excellence in numbers, metrics, and outcomes. But true nursing excellence lives in the quiet hands that comfort, the voices that reassure, and the hearts that keep hope alive. The Driving Force Award is our way of saying: we see you; we value you. And we're deeply grateful,' said John Sunil, Group CEO of Burjeel All AroundFor Mei Alegre, a Filipino Nurse Manager at Burjeel Hospital, Abu Dhabi, the moment was surreal. A nurse with nine years of service at Burjeel, she arrived believing she was simply participating in an International Nurses Day event.'I thought I was just coming to speak about my experience,' she said through tears. 'Never in my life did I imagine this. I've always loved my job, but to be appreciated like this — it's overwhelming.'Reflecting on her journey, she shared, 'Even though I've transitioned into a managerial position, many of my former patients still recognize me. In those moments, I feel a deep sense of pride knowing that the care I provided made a lasting difference.'For Soher Mohammed Ahmed Ali, an Egyptian Nursing Educator at Medeor Hospital, Abu Dhabi, the recognition carried deep personal meaning. Having lost her father to cancer, she dedicated her life to supporting others. 'I couldn't help my father, but maybe I can help others through what I do,' she said, adding, 'When patients or their families pray for me, when they say a quiet dua. That's more than enough. That's everything.'The recognition, she says, felt deeply personal. 'Being a nurse is part of who I am. This award reminds me that our presence and our care truly matter.'Nabil Mohamed Ikbal, a registered nurse at Lifecare Hospital, Baniyas, described the moment as 'unreal.' With four years in the system, the Indian nurse saw the moment as a meaningful symbol of validation. He recalled one of his proudest moments — leading the resuscitation of a patient who had been without pulse or breath for over 20 minutes. 'We continued CPR for 50 minutes. Everyone thought there was no hope. But the patient came back. That's the kind of team I have. That's the kind of profession nursing is.'Recognizing the Quiet Heroes of HealthcareThe other winners included Mohammed Hamid Taher from Jordan and Mark Darrel Manalo De La Cruz from the Philippines, and Ani M. Jose, Archanakumari Viswanatha Panicker, Priyanka Devi Kaleeswaran, Sibi Mathew, and Vishnuprasad Sasthamkovil from leaders, family members, colleagues, and patients came together to celebrate stories that often go unnoticed. The evening was a tribute to those who go above and beyond, shift after shift. Winners were selected after months of assessments across Burjeel units. The unit-level committees reviewed the nurses' performance, community service, and patient impact, before forwarding final nominations to a central jury. The outcome was kept completely confidential, making the final reveal a true surprise.
