Within the framework of constantly striving to serve the most vulnerable, we are pleased to announce the signing of an agreement between the Lebanese Association of the Knights of Malta, also known as “Order of Malta Lebanon” (OML) and Hôtel-Dieu de France.

The Order of Malta Lebanon was represented by Mr. Patrick Jabre, Director General, Professor Bechara Asmar, Medical Board Chairman, in the presence of our partner based in France, “Malte-Liban Association”, represented by its President, Mr. Albert Kfouri, and Hôtel-Dieu de France was represented by Mr. Nassib Nasr, Director General of HDF.

On one hand, Malte-Liban Association facilitated the purchase of two new machines for Hôtel-Dieu de France, namely an MRI and a neurosurgical microscope. On the other hand, HDF will be responsible for setting up a line of credit, which will be used, over a period of four years, to partially finance hospital care for the most vulnerable patients referred by OML. In accordance with the agreed operating protocol, this line of credit will be dedicated to the referral of patients to HDF and/or the hospitals of the USJ-HDF network that will be initiated by the Order of Malta Lebanon.  Hand in hand we will continue to serve the needs of the most vulnerable with the best quality of services
