New Care Homes Operators Business Section within the Malta Chamber of Commerce established

A new business section dedicated to the ever-growing sector of Care Homes Operators was set up within the Malta Chamber of Commerce, with the election for the Executive Committee taking place in May.

The Chamber believes that with the setting up of this Business Section, the Chamber is “once again being proactive in representing an underserved sector, especially during these unprecedented times posed by COVID-19.”

Natalie Briffa Farrugia, Chairperson of the new Executive Committee said: “I am happy to serve the business community of this sector, as private and church run care homes in Malta, within the Malta Chamber. As we come together, we are today in a position to enhance the sector and take it to the next level. With this new platform at the Chamber, I am confident that we can bring added-value to the sector, both as operators and most importantly to our residents.”

The Chamber said that Malta was experiencing unprecedented times in this sector with COVID19, “making it more important than ever to protect and safeguard the elderly, which underlines the timeliness of setting up such a committee.”

The six-member Executive Committee is made up of Ms Nathalie Briffa Farrugia as Chairperson (Care Malta), Ms Sarah Cassar as Deputy Chairperson (Casa Antonia), Ms Charmaine Attard (AX Care), Dr Marie Eleanor Farrugia (Prime Care), Ms Angelle Falzon (Caring First Ltd.) and Ms Fleur Balzan (H. Concern Company Ltd).
