On January 3, Mediclinic Middle East, one of the leading private hospital groups in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), announced the acquisition of Ayadi Home Healthcare, which provides home healthcare services to patients in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Ayadi, with a team of medical professionals including doctors, nurses and therapists, currently provides home healthcare services including respiratory care, medicine administration, wound and ulcer care, chronic disease management, nutritional therapy, total parenteral nutrition, physical therapy and occupational therapy.
Mediclinic Middle East, part of Mediclinic International plc, operates seven hospitals in the UAE with over 900 inpatient beds, including the newly-opened Mediclinic Parkview Hospital in Dubai, as well as more than 20 clinics in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Al Dhafra. Over the past few years, Mediclinic has widened its strategy from a focus on acute hospital care to include the wider continuum of care.
Through this acquisition, Mediclinic Middle East will be able to further its expansion strategy along the continuum of care and continue to support its patients who have left the traditional hospital setting, or who are unable/unwilling to visit a medical facility in person. It takes place shortly after Mediclinic Middle East acquired 100% control of Bourn Hall Fertility Centre, one of the world’s most recognized names in IVF and infertility treatments, from TVM Capital Healthcare on November 14, 2021.
