New wing for PJ’s oldest hospital

SOME things never change despite the passing of time, and Assunta Hospital is a fine example of an institution that has retained its standards after 52 long years.  

“The physical outlook of the hospital has changed, but the core values that left behind by the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary have remained,” said Nursing Sister Helena Tcheng, adding that the nuns arrived in 1953 at the request of the Catholic hierarchy in Kuala Lumpur to look after the medical needs of the underprivileged in Puchong and Petaling Jaya.
