The Management

“CEDARS International” born out of the womb of CEDARS – Jebel Ali International Hospital has already proven its point in Hospital Management by making a real success story of the CEDARS – JAIH which it has built from Ground Zero through Construction Architectural design, Electromechanical design, Medical Gas System, internal design, sourcing, selection, purchase and adaptation of equipment, recruitment of human resources and training them into optimal corporate operation, designing tailor-made computer programs for a complete modular administrative, accounting, Outpatient and Inpatient Electronic file, Di Com conversion of medical data and Imaging modalities and their networking.

Operating from square one with a small but devoted team, extremely limited and, at times, prohibitive financial resources and relatively difficult conditions on every level right from lack of data for correct planning up to training Human resources of various and often conflicting ethnic, social, cultural and professional backgrounds. The absence of regulatory statues, standards or systems of any nature made our task much harder. At every step we had to learn our lessons the hard way by carrying our own research or improvise to find our own solutions.

It is true that we got polished by our own experiences, our own practical successes but the positive outcome of all this was the acquisition of a deeper understanding of Hospital Management and regional realities. We have been capable to develop our own measure scales and standards for feasibility or non feasibility. This unique pioneering experience has sharpened our insight into realities and contributed to the formation of a particular realistic sensitivity to local and regional socio economic orientations and market conditions and characteristics. We became an unannounced reference for certain “Management Companies” and we evolved procedures to establish bases for correct projecting as related to the market of Dubai, the U.A.E or the regional markets. It goes without saying that while there are scientific guidelines in Management that should never be ignored but in the final analysis all depends on successful implementation of those guidelines and their adaptation to specific realities and that is where the test for the success or failure of any approach lies. “The proof to the pudding lies in eating it” and “Devil resides in the details”.

It is with this solid backbone experience and this open ended creative vision with limitless horizons that we approach and tackle issues of Management. We strongly believe that Numbers are subservient to correct vision. The opposite is not true.
