Minister for Health and Active Ageing, Jo Etienne Abela, has announced the official opening of the ‘Early Pregnancy Unit’ at Mater Dei Hospital, designed to support individuals experiencing complications during early stages of pregnancy.

The new unit will provide space for up to eight patients requiring further care and monitoring. It will also include an outpatient clinic specifically for individuals experiencing recurrent pregnancy loss.

The Minister further outlined that the unit will be operated by a team of 20 trained professionals, including nurses and midwives. Following specialised training, the Early Pregnancy Unit is scheduled to begin offering its services as of next week.

“I am confident that the Early Pregnancy Unit will not only fulfil its intended purpose, but will also serve as a vital support structure for those who unfortunately experience complications during pregnancy. The Government remains committed to enhancing and expanding services for individuals navigating this critical phase of their lives.” concluded Minister Jo Etienne Abela.

‘With the support of my family, friends, kunsilliera, tesserati and parliamentary colleagues, I am officially putting my name forward to serve as leader of our great party once again.’
