Mental health law in the UAE guarantees the safeguarding of the rights and dignity of psychiatric patients, along with the provision of health care and the regulations of relations between psychiatric patients and people related to them, including employed and employee relations. To meet the objectives of mental health law in the United Arab Emirates, it is recommended that infrastructure be developed, mental health professionals be specialized trained, and awareness of mental health be spread.
