SAKINA Inpatient Services

Comprehensive Psychiatric Care for Crisis and Recovery

The SAKINA Inpatient Services provide specialised psychiatric care for adults experiencing severe mental health conditions that require structured, round-the-clock support. Our inpatient facilities in Abu Dhabi are designed to offer a safe, healing, and professional environment where patients receive the right care at the right time, whether for short-term crisis stabilisation or long-term rehabilitation.

 

 

Our Approach

At SAKINA, inpatient care is built on three pillars: safety, personalisation, and continuity. Each patient receives an individualised treatment plan created by a multidisciplinary team that includes psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, occupational therapists, and social workers. Our focus is not only on immediate symptom relief, but also on long-term recovery and reintegration into daily life.

 

 

Levels of Care

  • High-Acuity Units (Crisis Stabilisation)
    For patients in acute distress or psychiatric crisis, our high-acuity units provide 24/7 intensive monitoring, medication management, and therapeutic support to help stabilise symptoms quickly and safely.
  • Medium and Low-Acuity Units (Rehabilitation & Recovery)
    For individuals requiring longer stays, these units focus on structured rehabilitation. Patients benefit from daily therapy sessions, group activities, skills training, and holistic interventions aimed at rebuilding independence and resilience.

 

Comprehensive Services Offered

  • Medical and Psychiatric Treatment: Evidence-based interventions and continuous monitoring.
  • Psychological Therapies: Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), supportive counselling, and group therapy.
  • Rehabilitation and Skills Training: Occupational therapy, social skills practice, and vocational programs that prepare patients to reintegrate into society.
  • Family Involvement: Family counselling and educational workshops to strengthen support systems at home.
  • Holistic Support: Mindfulness, recreational therapy, and wellness activities to promote overall wellbeing.

 

Post-Discharge Support

Care does not end at discharge. Patients and families continue to receive outpatient follow-ups, group therapy options, rehabilitation services, and vocational training programs. This continuity of care helps reduce relapse risks and ensures smoother reintegration into daily life.

 

 

Why Choose SAKINA Inpatient Services?

  • Safe, state-of-the-art facilities designed for healing and recovery.
  • A multidisciplinary team of experts offering personalised care plans.
  • Multiple levels of care, from crisis stabilisation to long-term rehabilitation.
  • Integration with the wider SAKINA and PureHealth network for continuity of services.
  • Strong focus on recovery-oriented care, empowering patients to regain independence.

 

 

Your Journey with Us

The journey begins with an initial assessment upon admission, followed by the development of a personalised treatment plan. Patients then engage in a structured daily program of therapy, medical management, and rehabilitation activities. Families are engaged throughout the process, and a tailored discharge plan ensures ongoing care and stability once the patient leaves the facility.

 

 

A Place of Safety, Healing, and Hope

SAKINA Inpatient Services are more than hospital units, they are places of transformation where patients find stability, families find reassurance, and recovery becomes possible. We are committed to helping every patient build a foundation for long-term wellbeing.

Every patient is unique. That’s why we combine advanced medical science with human compassion to design care plans that address not only the condition, but also the emotional, social, and practical aspects of living with memory disorders. We provide comprehensive assessments that include cognitive testing, neurological evaluations, blood tests, and advanced neuroimaging to ensure accurate and early diagnosis.

Family and Caregiver Support

We recognise that memory disorders affect entire families, not just patients. Caregivers often face stress, burnout, and uncertainty. Our clinic supports them through educational workshops on dementia care, support groups that create a sense of community, counselling services to promote emotional resilience, and practical guidance to help manage daily challenges.

Post-Diagnosis and Long-Term Care

Our commitment does not end with diagnosis. We provide continuous follow-up, structured rehabilitation, and community-based programs that help patients reintegrate into daily life with dignity and independence.

We also integrate digital tools through the Pura app, enabling families to stay connected with doctors and track progress remotely.
