Sheikh Khalifa Central Hospital Enhances Security and Operational Efficiency with IPROTECT AC
Location: Fujairah, United Arab Emirates
Client: Sheikh Khalifa Central Hospital
Sheikh Khalifa Central Hospital, a new state-of-the-art healthcare facility in Fujairah, serves citizens on the Eastern coast of the UAE with 24/7 health services. The hospital includes 11 specialized departments, a 32-bed emergency ward, a 3-storey rehabilitation building, and over 700 parking spaces. Ensuring complete security, patient safety, and operational efficiency was critical from day one.
Challenge
The hospital required a fully integrated security solution capable of managing:
- Complex video surveillance across a large campus with 700 cameras.
- Secure access control for 400 doors, including card and PIN authentication.
- Integration with healthcare applications, including emergency evacuation, baby-monitoring, and patient/visitor management.
- Streamlined management of staff, patients, and visitors within one interface.
- Compliance with Fujairah’s latest security and healthcare guidelines.
The hospital needed a solution that could protect patients, staff, and assets while optimizing operational workflows.

- Operational Efficiency & Compliance: Integration with Active Directory and other hospital systems ensures automated workflows, faster access for authorized personnel, and adherence to local regulations.
