Steward Malta re-emphasises commitment to orderly transition: Slams government’s handling of situation

Steward Health Care Malta (SHCM) re-emphasises its commitment to the orderly transition of the hospitals to new management.

In a statement the company said, “We remain under a duty and owe to our patients to comply with the service concession agreement terms relating to an orderly handover, which we are adhering to. The health and well-being of our patients remains our primary priority throughout this process.

We are disappointed at yet another misrepresentation by the Government of Malta of SHCM’s actions; this false representation of SHCM ‘abandoning’ the hospitals simply acts as yet another warning of the Government’s unreliability as a partner to other foreign companies considering investing in Malta”.
