 The Ministry of Health, Wellness and Elderly Affairs recently handed over biomedical equipment to the Comfort-Based Senior Citizens' Home, which is expected to improve the level of medical services provided to clients at the facility. Acting Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Health, Jenny Danielle, says she is confident that the biomedical equipment will assist the facility tremendously in the care of the clients. As a Ministry of Health, now that we have taken over the management of the Comfort-Based Facility, we recognize the gaps in terms of the medical equipment that is available for treatment and for medical care of our elderly persons' hair. And so this morning, we are very proud to be able to hand over to the management and staff of Comfort-Based Facilities, one stretcher, six ripple mattresses, one adult scale, one AED, and this is a machine that allows for resuscitation of patients, one vital sign monitor and scan, and two oxygen concentrators. Minister for Health, the Honourable Moses Jabatis, says he looks forward to working together with the Comfort-Based Senior Citizens' Home to ensure that services are improved for the elderly and employees. I'm hoping that the equipment which is here today will help the senior citizens and will help the staff of this facility to improve the service, to improve the conditions and eventually our elderly folk will have a much better stay at the Comfort-Based Senior Citizens' Home. There are a lot of things we are doing as a ministry to ensure that the Comfort-Based Senior Citizens' Home is a better place to live, to work, and to ensure that it creates a high level of service to the clients, to our elderly people. Nurse at the Comfort-Based Senior Citizens' Home, Amy Japier, expressed gratitude to the Ministry of Health for the biomedical equipment and efforts to provide support towards improving care for the elderly. On behalf of the management and staff of Comfort-Based, I would like to thank the Ministry of Health for demonstrating their commitment to improving elder care in St. Lucia. The equipment will be put to good use and we appreciate it very much and we are very happy and look forward to working with them over the years. We are on a great start. The donation of biomedical equipment included stretcher, adult scale, vital sign monitor, and oxygen concentrators to name a few.
