The Parapharmacy Celebrates Its First Year

Placing the person at the center of care and attention as a true mission —with a welcoming spirit of fraternity— in keeping with the charism of Saint John of God. These are the values that inspire the work of the parapharmacy ahop, which is celebrating its first year of opening in the Braccio di Carlo Magno in St. Peter’s Square.
