Why all the emphasis on Geriatrics and Long-Term Care Patients? Are we catering for people below 65 who need rehabilitation in a DECENT environment? No one seems to have answers to these questions!!!!

Sir Paul Boffa Hospital must be one of the most beautiful buildings of its era, with a wonderful view to boost. Please leave it to public domain and don't sell it to private owners!!! The Maltese do have a right to enjoy the wonderful view it provides. I'm sure that many of its patients take comfort from the views and would appreciate them more than the views from the San Gwann area. It surely needs a lot of repair, because some of its balconies are literally falling off, but that is no reason to sell it to private owners who will undoubtly turn it into a hotel accessible only to its clients and workers. It would be utterly unfair!

"Answering parliamentary questions by Labour MP Carmelo Abela, Health Minister Joseph Cassar said there were plans to date on the future use of Sir Paul Boffa and St Luke's hospitals."

And what are those plans?
