About C.O.T. Clinical Institute

COT SpA (COT is the acronym for CURE ORTOPEDICHE TRAUMATOLOGICHE, i.e. ORTHOPEDIC TRAUMA CARE) is a Multi-Specialty Medical Center that has been active in Messina since August 1973. An independent healthcare provider of NHS-funded services, and a member of AIOP (the Italian Association of Private Hospitals), COT is a Medical Center providing care in the areas of Orthopedic Trauma, Internal Medicine, Cardiology, Vascular Surgery, Ophthalmology, and Rehabilitation. Located at via Ducezio n° 1, within walking distance of the historical city center, COT is very easy to reach also thanks to its close proximity to the motorway junctions of Messina-Centro and Messina-Boccetta.

The “Right to Live” has always motivated COT to follow down the path of ongoing keenness for research, and has always pointed the way forward to service excellence. Constant technology upgrading, and continuing education for medical and paramedical staff are thus attained in the wake of quality, moulded by natural and continuing needs for improvement. COT was certified by DNV (Det Norske Veritas) under ISO 9001 certification requirements already back in 1999, the very first private healthcare organization in central and southern Italy to attain ISO certification, as we have always believed it essential to be evaluated by a third party. Years later, a system encompassing generalist requirements appeared to be no longer enough to shift from quality to excellence in health care. Based on these grounds, the Executive Board undertook a specific journey – the result of financial efforts and investments in human and technical resources – that led COT to be awarded with Joint Commission International accreditation on February 10, 2014.
