Air Force Academy Cadets Donate Blood to Patients at San Paolo Hospital in Naples
The medical team at San Paolo Hospital, coordinated by Dr. Angelo Casalino, carried out around 110 donations on Wednesday 11th December in the Institute's infirmary from as many attendees who responded with enthusiasm and generosity to the initiative, aware that donating blood costs nothing and can save a life.
The collected blood bags will be used for patients at the well-known Neapolitan hospital, which was inaugurated in 1972. The Facility provides care through Ordinary Admission, Emergency Admission, Day Hospital, and Day Surgery, via its Operational Units which also offer specialist outpatient healthcare services. In 2011, the Facility was enhanced with the Urology and Ophthalmology Operational Units from the CTO Hospital. Furthermore, by distinguishing itself as a centre of excellence in the treatment of female pathologies, the Facility received, in 2010 and 2012, the “Bollini Rosa” (Pink Badges) award from the National Observatory on Women's Health.
