Bahrain Mumtalakat Holding Company (Mumtalakat), the sovereign wealth fund of the Kingdom of Bahrain, has announced a strategic partnership with M42, an Abu Dhabi-based global tech-enabled health powerhouse, established following the coming together of Mubadala Health and G42 Healthcare, to launch the Amana Healthcare facility in Bahrain.

Amana Healthcare, a CARF and JCI-accredited subsidiary of the M42 group, is expanding into Bahrain to replicate its successful care model from the UAE.

The Bahrain Amana Healthcare facility is scheduled to commence operations in 2025. Commenting on the announcement, Shaikh Abdulla bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Chief Executive Officer of Mumtalakat, said, “This presents an opportunity to enhance the existing healthcare landscape in Bahrain by addressing crucial gaps and delivering added value services to the community, in addition to creating high skilled jobs for Bahrainis.”

Hasan Jasem Al Nowais, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of M42, highlighted M42’s unparalleled, tech- enabled health solutions.

The new facility in Al Jasra will provide long-term care services for people with complex medical needs requiring extended inpatient stays. Featuring a dedicated laboratory, radiology, pharmacy, therapy rooms, gym, hydrotherapy, majlis and recreational spaces, the facility aims to offer worldclass, tech-enabled services.

It will also offer tailored social programs and non-clinical services, such as community gatherings and recreational events, to help patients and their families adjust to life after hospitalization.
