National Rehabilitation Center in Abu Dhabi awarded three-year CARF accreditation

UAE— The National Rehabilitation Center (NRC) in Abu Dhabi has earned a prestigious three-year accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF® International), a globally recognized independent body that evaluates health and human services.

This accreditation underscores NRC’s steadfast commitment to delivering high-quality addiction treatment and rehabilitation services.

CARF accreditation is granted only to organizations that meet rigorous international standards through a thorough peer-review process.

Achieving the Three-Year Accreditation means that NRC has not only met but exceeded these stringent benchmarks, confirming its status as a leading provider of evidence-based addiction treatment and rehabilitation programs.

The accredited services at NRC include detoxification and withdrawal management, inpatient care, and outpatient treatment.

These comprehensive programs support individuals at every stage of their recovery journey, ensuring personalized and effective care.

Yousef Altheeb Alketbi, CEO of NRC, expressed pride in this accomplishment.

He stated that the accreditation reaffirms the center’s dedication to offering world-class treatment while respecting the dignity and well-being of every patient.

He also emphasized that this recognition reflects NRC’s commitment to international best practices, guaranteeing that each person receives tailored support to meet their unique needs.

The CARF accreditation process involves an extensive consultative review.

Surveyors evaluate service effectiveness, patient outcomes, and organizational leadership by observing services, interviewing patients and staff, and reviewing documentation.

NRC’s successful accreditation highlights its ability to maintain a safe, ethical, and patient-centered environment focused on long-term recovery and social reintegration.

Since its founding in 2002 by the vision of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, NRC has grown into a key institution within the PureHealth Group’s network of hospitals.

As the UAE’s foremost authority on rehabilitation and addiction treatment, NRC has been recognized by the World Health Organization in 2017 as a regional leader.

The center continues to innovate through cutting-edge research, advanced treatment models, and active community engagement, solidifying its role as a regional center of excellence.

NRC’s ongoing mission is to combat substance use disorders by implementing evidence-based solutions in collaboration with government and semi-government entities.

This CARF accreditation is a testament to the center’s unwavering pursuit of excellence and its vital role in supporting individuals on their path to recovery.
