MILAN (ITALPRESS) – More than 2,000 people last night attended the lighting of the Christmas tree and concert at IRCCS San Raffaele Hospital in Milan. Doctors, nurses, researchers, administrative staff, faculty and students from the university, as well as many patients, along with their families, crowded the hospital esplanade, in which the large stage was set up and hosted many singers, including Mara Sattei, Rovazzi, The Colors, Irama, Achille Lauro. Two hours of music and merriment, a concrete closeness to the patients who will spend the holidays in the hospital, their families and all those who work inside San Raffaele every day, to remember, as San Raffaele Hospital President Paolo Rotelli said, that “the hospital is often seen as a place of suffering, but it is also, and above all, a place where we heal. We want to create important humanization events, to continue to put people at the center of our efforts.” Overlooking the windows of the hospital, even the most frail patients were able to participate in the big celebration, which has now become a tradition that also attracts many young people from the municipalities surrounding the hospital. Also on stage for Christmas greetings were the Rotelli family, Kamel Ghribi, vice president of the San Donato Group, Licia Ronzulli, Vice President of the Senate, Attilio Fontana, Governor of Lombardy, Claudio Sgaraglia, Prefect of Milan.(ITALPRESS).
