The Elderly & Community Care Department informs the general public that the CommCare Unit transferred its offices from 7, Harper Lane, Floriana to CommCare Unit, St’Luke’s Hospital, G’mangia.
CommCare aims to ensure that all patients receiving care in the community are cared for in a holistic manner. The main aims are to deliver and co-ordinate the services available for persons who need home-based care, to promote their well-being and to maximize independence. This unit also acts as a regulator for domiciliary care as authorized by the department of health and is the first source of referral for MMDNA services.
An interdisciplinary team of nurses, occupational therapists and physiotherapists runs the CommCare Unit. This team, together with the service user, liaises with other health and social care professionals and entities to address the needs of all persons entitled for the service.
Please note that CommCare’s telephone number has changed from 25576543 to the new telephone number 25952595. CommCare should preferably be reached between 7.30am and 2.00pm. Referrals outside these hours should be for urgent cases only. The contact email address is commcare@gov.mt
