Polistena Hospital – The Sisters of Charity donate masks
The Thouret onlus Foundation, operating arm of the Sisters of Charity of Saint Giovanna Antida, thanks to the campaign for the collection of aid for the Covid-19 emergency launched by the Superior General Sister Nunzia De Gori, originally from Messignadi di Oppido Mamertina, has chosen Polistena as the only hospital in Calabria to which to donate a large number of equipment to protect healthcare personnel and patients.
Yesterday, early in the morning, Sr. Annamaria Leone and Sister Angela Paglione arrived at the hospital and delivered 50 visors G for eye protection to the medical director Giuseppe Zuccarelli. 50 disposable gowns; 6 protective glasses; 300 FFP2 masks; a portable finger oximeter; 66 packs of sanitizing gel; 9 infrared thermoscanners.
The solidarity campaign aims to offer a concrete response to the needs of the missions of the Sisters of Charity in the world and to pursue social, humanitarian, cultural and educational aims by operating in the sectors of health, education and the environment.
Once the material was received, the medical director of the hospital Giuseppe Zuccarelli addressed a heartfelt thanks to the sisters, also on behalf of the company management.
