The old Hospital San Giovanni di Dio is now more often referred to as Torregalli Hospital. Located in Scandicci, it has large rooms in the maternity section and since the end of 2011 babies stay in the room with their mothers instead of going to the nursery at night.

Torregalli, in Scandicci, has now surpassed Careggi in terms of baby factory production numbers and is the preferred choice of many mothers for the relatively easy availability of pain medication. Just ask and you’ll get your epidural before the hysteria and homicidal tendencies kick in. (SJ)
