“This is why we have introduced new ideas like a hybrid system that includes medical robots and a helipad that we will rely on as roads become more choked with traffic.
“The hospital will be fully digitalised and would focus on providing medical intervention for people at home.”
The new hospital became the first eco-friendly facility in Bahrain after signing a $1m agreement to install a solar system on its premises last year.
AMH has also signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland – Bahrain (RCSI) to provide clinical teaching for medical and nursing students through the new hospital.
The Reformed Church in America co-owns the enterprise, which runs under a government ministry.
AMH currently has four facilities in Amwaj, Manama, Saar and Riffa and, when the new hospital opens in A’ali, more than 1,000 staff members will wear the AMH badge.
