Greetings from CoRSU Rehabilitation Hospital, and thank you so much for the good partnership, working relationship and cooperation that exist between us in support of CoRSU's Vision and Mission. On behalf of the Board of Directors, Management and Staff of CoRSU Rehabilitation Hospital, I regret to inform you of the departure of Mr. Davide Naggi who has been CoRSU's CEO for the past 5 years (2017-2022) but has moved on from CoRSU's service at the end of September 2022 after completing service of his last employment contract. Working with Davide has been an incredibly insightful experience and we appreciate his distinguished service at CoRSU Hospital particularly his commendable efforts in expanding the Hospital's network of donors and partners and standing with the indigene patients over the years. As we move forward, we will continue building onto his achievements, and we wish him the very best in his future endeavors.
