Offering its services free of charge to patients in Malta and Gozo, the Hos- pice Movement's contribution is well recognised in the Maltese society. Since its foundation in 1989, many pa- tients and their families, experiencing very challenging times, have benefited from the services of this voluntary or- ganisation. St Michael Hospice in Santa Venera, formerly known as Adelaide Cini In- stitute, will become the main premises for Hospice Malta and is expected to help further enhance the already estab- lished community services. e complex will house an in-patient care unit, complementing all the other services for a more holistic approach. e present-day therapy services will be expanded and a number of out-pa- tient clinics will also be introduced. St Michael Hospice will also enhance its educational wing which will open many opportunities to exchange ex- pertise with other hospices across Eu- rope and beyond. e association between the Hospice Movement and Farsons goes back sev- eral years. is latest donation by Farsons and its affiliates will specifically go towards the building and furnishing of the in-patient kitchen and dining facilities at the new hospice complex benefit- ting patients and their families.
