Hi there
From what I understand, it is compulsory that all expats in Dubai must take out medical insurance for themselves and their dependents. This means that before moving to Dubai your family will probably need to have private health insurance, which should cover any medical emergencies or vaccinations while you're in the country. Have a look at our guide to healthcare in Dubai for more information about the options that are available to you.
Hope this helps!
