Saudi Arabia

Cambridge Health Saudi Arabia expects its licensed capacity to approach 500 beds once ongoing expansion projects at Cambridge Hospital Jeddah are completed and additional beds at Cambridge Hospital Dhahran receive regulatory approval.

The opening follows the recent launch of the hospital’s first-of-its-kind emergency CT system in Saudi Arabia, which is designed to speed up diagnosis and treatment for stroke and trauma patients.

The procedure was successfully carried out on a 55-year-old patient with multiple myeloma and signals the launch of the hospital’s new Stem Cell Transplantation and Cellular Therapy Program.

For patients, the recognition reflects a healthcare environment where nurses receive strong institutional support to deliver safe, compassionate, and patient-centred care.

The new diagnostic approach aligns with recommendations from the European Association of Urology and the American Urological Association.

The collaboration follows the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding and forms part of Saudi Arabia’s broader efforts to enhance preventive healthcare and improve outcomes for people living with chronic diseases.

The Stage 7 validation confirms that Sultan City has implemented fully electronic clinical documentation, closed-loop medication management systems, advanced clinical decision support tools, and robust data analytics capabilities.

The hospital met all required standards set by the Saudi Patient Safety Center, reflecting strong compliance with structured safety protocols and system-wide quality controls across its clinical and operational departments.

Under Aster’s management, the hospital will adopt the group’s integrated healthcare model, global quality standards, and patient-centred approach to care.

The recognition also builds on earlier milestones within the group, including similar certification achieved by Dr Soliman Fakeeh Hospital, Jeddah, reinforcing a system-wide approach to patient-centred healthcare across the organisation’s network.
