Rome, agreement to save and re-launch the Fatebenefratelli Isola Tiberina Hospital – Corriere.it

A breath-taking advertisement for Roman health care, on Christmas Eve: the Catholic Foundation for Health Care, created by the Pope last October 6, and the Foundation for Leonardo del Vecchio, united within the newborn joint project For Sant Isola Tiberina (SET), today I announce an agreement for the rescue and re-launch of the Vatibinfratelli San Giovanni Calipetta Hospital in Isola Tiberina in Rome. Sit will have all the financial and professional resources available to complete the process.

An intention to make the Roman Hospital located on the island in the middle of the Tiber River a privilege of the National Health Panorama once again. Fatebenefratelli San Giovanni Calibita Hospital will be able to count on an industrial partner, selected after careful selection at the Agostino Gemelli Ircc University Hospital FoundationS: Haikal, as it is known, has a wealth of skills at the highest level, recognized at the international level, and is able to ensure management based on excellence in healthcare and research. The project aims to preserve the deep social and Catholic value of the historic riverfront suites.

Monsignor Nunzio Galantino, President of the Catholic Health Foundation comments: I cannot fail to see with satisfaction the fruitful cooperation that I will achieve as soon as possible to an ultimate solution to restore the full and sustainable operations of Fatebenefratelli Isola Tiberina. For Leonardo del Vecchio, the joy of announcing that comes at this particularly difficult period: I am honored to be able to make, with the institution that bears my name and together with the Holy See, a contribution to the process of relaunching the structure of excellence of the City of Rome at the service of the most vulnerable and needy. I hope there will soon be other initiatives like this that will allow me to give back to our country all the good it has been able to give me. The best way to wish everyone a happy birthday.
