As it builds a new healthcare network in the UAE based on the principle of connected caring, Trellis health becomes one of the first organisations in the region to adopt an electronic health record designed with AI at its core from the outset.
Dubai, UAE – Trellis Health, the healthcare group backed by Al Ghurair, has selected InterSystems IntelliCare™ as the digital foundation for its healthcare network, bringing its Connected Caring philosophy to life through coordinated, patient-centered care. IntelliCare is the first electronic health record (EHR) designed with AI at its core to receive EU MDR regulatory certification. Trellis Health currently comprises Trellis Hospital in Jumeirah, alongside two outpatient clinics under development. With an ambitious vision for growth, Trellis is building a healthcare network designed for the future, with plans for a completely new hospital built from the ground up, and additional outpatient clinics to expand access to high-quality care across Dubai.
Trellis Health is embedding AI into the foundation of its clinical and operational environment from the beginning. By selecting InterSystems IntelliCare, the organisation is taking a forward-looking approach that places artificial intelligence at the centre of care delivery, workforce productivity, and the patient experience from day one.
BUILDING AN AI-READY HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATION FROM THE START
Trellis Health has a unique opportunity to design its digital ecosystem without the constraints of legacy systems. This enables the organisation to establish a modern healthcare foundation where clinicians, caregivers, and operational teams can benefit from AI-powered capabilities integrated directly into daily workflows.
InterSystems IntelliCare combines comprehensive EHR capabilities with embedded AI designed specifically for healthcare. Built on proven InterSystems healthcare technology, the solution leverages intelligent workflow assistance, conversational user experiences, and access to clinical information to help streamline administrative tasks, reduce inefficiencies, and enable healthcare professionals to focus more time on patient care.
Technology is a key enabler of Trellis Health’s Connected Caring model, helping healthcare professionals, clinics and hospitals work together around the needs of every patient.
By adopting InterSystems IntelliCare EHR from the outset, Trellis Health is laying the groundwork for a healthcare environment that can continuously evolve, adapt, and innovate as new technologies emerge.
SUPPORTING CONNECTED, PATIENT-FIRST CARE
The choice of InterSystems IntelliCare reflects Trellis Health’s commitment to delivering its Connected Caring philosophy through practical investments in how care is coordinated and experienced.
The philosophy is underpinned by four brand promises that the platform will help bring to life: One Team Around You, by connecting teams across facilities to coordinate each patient’s care; Experts That Put You First, by supporting clinicians with information to recommend appropriate care based on each patient’s needs and goals; A Simplified Patient Experience, by making healthcare clearer and easier to navigate, from booking through follow-up; and Caring Beyond Today, by supporting ongoing care, prevention, and long-term wellbeing.
The platform also establishes a strong digital backbone for future innovation, enabling Trellis Health to take advantage of emerging AI capabilities while maintaining high standards of clinical quality, governance, and patient trust.
A PARTNERSHIP FOCUSED ON THE FUTURE OF HEALTHCARE
“For decades, Al Ghurair has been embedded in the infrastructure of everyday life – we house people, we feed people, and we move people, supporting the growth of Dubai and the communities we serve. Through Trellis Health, we are extending that contribution into healthcare, with a long-term commitment to improving health outcomes and expanding access to high-quality care.
As Dubai continues to grow, so too does the need for healthcare that is connected, accessible and designed around patients. By selecting InterSystems IntelliCare, we are investing in a digital foundation that helps bring our Connected Caring promise to life, supporting healthcare professionals, connecting care across our network, and creating a more personal and seamless experience for patients.”
