The complete renovation of the patient wing of the General Surgery Clinic of the Elefsina General Hospital “Thriassio” was completed with a donation from the Hellenic Gas Transmission System Operator (DESFA).
DESFA, utilizing its human capital and expertise, collaborated with the Medical, Nursing and Technical Services of the Hospital and the contractors and, in line with the most modern hospital standards, contributed to the replacement of the clinic’s floors, covering an area of 800 sq.m., as well as to the replacement of the lighting with LED technology, the renewal of the wall coatings and the installation of handrails around the perimeter.
Thanks to the excellent coordination of all parties involved, the project was completed in a short time, without interrupting the basic operations of the Surgery Clinic and without suspending surgical operations.
With the renovation of the Hospital’s clinic, DESFA is contributing to the upgrading of the quality of the medical services offered and of the level of care provided to patients, confirming once again its commitment to supporting both the local communities where it operates and the society as a whole.
This initiative is part of DESFA’s corporate responsibility actions and is fully aligned with the ESG strategy implementd by the company, integrating ESG factors into a sustainable business model with high impact on climate and environment, corporate governance and society, listening to people’s needs and undertaking initiatives aimed at creating a positive impact, guided by the principles and values that underpin its operations.
The event for the handover of the renovated wing was attended by the CEO of DESFA, Maria Rita Galli, as well as by representatives of the company’s Division of Asset Development, Asset Management, Legal & Governance, Supply Chain, Commercial Services and Corporate Affairs, ESG & Communications.
The CEO of DESFA, Maria Rita Galli, stated, “We are particularly proud of the completion of the renovation of the patient ward of the General Surgery Clinic of the General Hospital of Elefsina “Thriassio”, an important healthcare pillar for West Attica and a valued stakeholder of DESFA.
