The Chairman, Dame Carmen Bellamy was delighted to announce that the last three Monitors and the Nurse’s Central Station had now been ordered and were due to be installed during the following weeks. Special thanks go to the Amadeus Chamber Choir and the Wallace Pipes and Drums who entertained the audience with their wonderful performance.
What a wonder change for the Gozo CCU Ward. Once these last monitors where installed, there was, for the first time ever, a monitor for each bed in the Ward, for the convenience of the patients and the Medical Staff. Some of these monitors are portable and compatible with aircraft, just in case there is a need for a patient to be transported to Malta or indeed overseas. Please view the Achievements area for a full list of equipment purchased.
Due to the installation of these Monitors, patients who would have normally been sent to Mater Dei, are now treated in Gozo and patients who were in Master Dei have been sent back to Gozo for treatment. What a benefit to the patient and their family to be together at such an emotional and critical time.
Thank you Gozo for your support in the past and your continuing support for the future! Heart problems can attack anyone at any age and we all have the right of access to good quality machinery to augment the already highly skilled and caring medical staff in the CCU at Gozo General Hospital.
The Gozo CCU Foundation will continue to purchase other needed equipment for this very special Ward.
Dame Carmen Bellamy would like to thank all the small businesses, benefactors and all who support the CCU Foundation in one way or another for their generosity.
The CCU can be reached by phoning Carmen Bellamy on 00356 21566496 or 00356 79566496. Alternatively, she can be contacted via email.
“Have a Heart” and carry on supporting the Gozo CCU Foundation - for the sake of the entire Local Community and, maybe, YOURSELF.
