Multigas Ltd donates beds to Mount Carmel Rehab Unit
Multigas Ltd donated 20 beds, complete with brand new mattresses to Mount Carmel Rehabilitation Unit for patients who are in the phase that determines their reintegration into society. The company participated in a general upgrading of the facilities, that is intended to create a more pleasant and comfortable environment for patients.
“The idea of the unit is to make patients feel at home,” explained Mount Carmel Hospital CEO Dr Clifton Grima. “Following treatment, transitional housing is recognized as an essential step for patients on their road to recovery, as this helps patients to start integrating back into society with as little repercussions for them as possible. Through this donation, the unit would be able to allocate more money to pressing needs,” Dr Grima said.
Multigas Chairman Mr Louis A Farrugia, who together with the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer Mr Michael Mifsud visited the unit, said: “The patients are pleased with these improvements as they feel that they are being cared for. Through this donation, Multigas intends to enhance the independence, dignity and privacy of residents while bringing about a happier atmosphere in the unit both for the patients as well as for the nursing staff.”
The beds were equally distributed between male and female wards.
The gesture was described by Mrs Ġemma Mifsud Bonnici, who followed this initiative, as “an excellent example of the fulfilment of corporate social responsibility.”
