HEALTH SERVICES

The Holy Father in the message of the 9th world Day of the Sick has stated that in her 2,000-year history, the Church has always tried to support therapeutic progress for the sake of ever improved assistance to the sick. She has intervened in various situations with every means at her disposal to see that the rights of the person are respected and his authentic well-being always pursued (cf. Populorum progressio, n. 34). Today too, faithful to the principles of the Gospel, the Magisterium never ceases to offer moral criteria to guide medical personnel in studying those aspects of research which have not yet been sufficiently clarified, without violating the requirements of an authentic humanism.

Therefore the Holy Father makes a pressing appeal to medical and nursing professionals to learn from Christ, the physician of souls and bodies, to be authentic "Good Samaritans" towards their brothers and sisters. Hence our diocese is blessed with a good number of hospitals, centres for the sick or the elderly.Displayed to you are the lists of addresses of the Hospitals, Dispensaries, Creche, Homes for the Sick & Disabled and Homes for the Aged.
