Hospital ward with prepared beds and bedside services, delivered and equipped by Sabbia International

Healthcare Division

We build hospitals, then we equip them.

Sabbia Healthcare designs, builds and fully equips health facilities. One contract covers the building and the medical equipment inside it, so you get a facility that can treat patients on the day it opens.

Previous clients

We are proud to have partnered with leading healthcare institutions and government health ministries across the region, including:

What we do

Two jobs that usually need two contractors.

Most health projects split the building work from the equipment. A contractor puts up the structure, a supplier delivers the machines later, and the gap between them shows up as delays, rework and rooms that will not take the equipment ordered for them.

We hold both. The theatre is designed around the lights and pendants going into it, the imaging room is built for the scanner it will house, and one team answers for the result.

Services

Five services, one scope.

From the first site visit to the maintenance visit three years later.

  • Hospital and clinic construction

    Hospitals, clinics, diagnostic centres and specialist units. Site assessment, architectural planning, civil works, mechanical and electrical installation, and finishing.

  • Medical equipment supply

    Sourcing, supply and installation of medical, diagnostic, laboratory and support equipment, matched to what the facility will actually treat.

  • Fit-out and commissioning

    Interior fit-out, utility commissioning and pre-launch testing, so the building is signed off as working before anyone hands over the keys.

  • Renovation and upgrades

    Refurbishment, expansion and equipment replacement in facilities that stay open while the work runs.

  • Maintenance and after-care

    Scheduled servicing and technical support that keeps equipment in use and the facility running.

Areas of expertise

Rooms with requirements.

Some spaces in a hospital are just rooms. These are not.

Theatres, imaging and critical care

These rooms carry the strictest requirements in the building: air handling, shielding, medical gases, floor loading and clearances that have to be right before the equipment arrives, not after.

  • Operating theatres with theatre lighting, pendants and modular wall systems
  • Imaging rooms built to the shielding and floor loading the scanner needs
  • Intensive care bays with piped gases, monitoring and backup power
  • Laboratories with the extraction and bench services the work requires
Operating theatre fitted out with surgical lighting, anaesthetic equipment and monitoring

Equipment chosen for the job, not the brochure

We specify against the caseload and the staff who will use it. A district clinic and a referral hospital need different machines, and the cheaper one is not always the wrong answer.

  • Imaging, laboratory, theatre and critical care equipment
  • Installation, calibration and acceptance testing
  • Staff orientation before handover
  • Consumables and spares planned with the purchase

Who we work with

The people who commission facilities.

  • Government health ministries

    National and county programmes, from single clinics to multi-facility rollouts.

  • Private hospital groups

    New sites, expansions and equipment replacement across existing estates.

  • Development partners

    Donor and programme-funded facilities delivered against fixed scopes and reporting.

  • Faith-based and NGO providers

    Mission hospitals and community facilities working to tight budgets.

  • Private investors

    Diagnostic centres and specialist units built as commercial ventures.

  • Facility operators

    Operators taking on a building that needs upgrading to current standards.

Why us

Why work with Sabbia.

  • One party accountable

    Construction, equipping and commissioning sit in one contract, so there is no gap between the builder and the supplier to argue over.

  • Backed by the group

    Sabbia International brings the civil engineering, procurement and logistics capability of four divisions to a single health project.

  • Built to standard

    Work is delivered against recognised health facility standards and tested before handover, not after occupation.

  • Scales to the brief

    The same team handles a rural clinic refurbishment and a regional hospital build. The scope changes; the accountability does not.
