The Holy Father will start by meeting the medical staff of the on-site outpatient clinic and continue to the pharmacy and shelter, which are all a part of the site in the heart of Rome. After having stopped at these locations, he will go on to the cafeteria, where he will unveil a commemorative plaque and bless the first stone to be used in upcoming renovations to the 1987 building.
