Tourism and industrial development
Jordan is widely recognized as a leading medical tourism destination, ranked by the World Bank as the top-ranking destination in the Arab world and 5th globally. Many of factors played into this ranking, including the quality of medical services offered and local and international accreditation of a number of Jordanian hospitals. The highly qualified workforce, as well as the level of training of nurses and standard of care offered.
Since the launch of ASEZ in 2001, Aqaba has witnessed a considerable increase in its population putting additional demand on the health care sector. Additionally, the value of committed investments in Aqaba has exceeded US$ 21 billion mainly in multibillion US$ real-estate/ tourism development projects.
Medical services are key to the Zone’s competitiveness and are an integral part of the Zone’s vision in terms of providing residents and visitors with world-class healthcare services. Thus, introducing sophisticated, larger investment in the health care sector that would not only serve Aqaba but the region as a whole with state-of-the-art medical facilities and institutions, is of great importance.
Moreover, Aqaba’s growing tourism sector, its strategic location on the Red Sea, modern infrastructure, ideal weather conditions, and competitive investment climate, make it an ideal destination for medical tourism services.
Aqaba Medical Complex is one of the most vital opportunities available in Aqaba today. An 85 Donums (850 thousand sq. m) land plot is allocated for the project. The Complex is to be situated in the north of Aqaba with proximity to KHIA, the University of Jordan, Prince Hashim Bin Abdullah II Hospital, and within Aqaba’s booming North Business District.
Aqaba Medical Complex is envisioned as a state-of-the-art medical Centre coupled with residential premises and hotels. The project consists of a public hospital and private unit for medical services of 150 beds to be expanded to 250 beds, a Staff Residential Complex with a 5-star hotel with accommodation for doctors, nurses, and other staff members, parking, and private parking for helicopters for emergency use with green areas.
