The government has diverted €8 million from the Social Development Fund to Hospice Malta for the completion of the NGO s palliative care complex project.
The first of its kind in Malta, the St Michael Hospice Complex will offer day therapy and an outpatients clinic, as well as 16 rooms to house patients who can no longer live at home but have not yet required hospital care. This will help them transition into full-time care while they remain surrounded by their loved ones.
The Santa Venera building was signed over to Hospice by the Church in 2019.
“Everyone knows the toll end of life care can have on people at the most difficult period in their lives, this project will seek to strengthen Hospice’s invaluable work in the field,” Prime Minister Robert Abela said.
