Has the management of a woman in cardiac arrest been neglected in the emergency room of the CHU of Toulouse ?
On the side of the unions and the witnesses present at the scene, on Sunday July 3, 2022, there would be no no doubt. On the side of the management of the hospital, it is assured that this 47-year-old woman “benefited without delay of life-threatening medical care”.
The family wonders
The patient died “the same morning of his care “according to a hospital source. His family and in particular the brother and the son of this woman wondered, Thursday, about the possibility of initiating legal proceedings.
“We are awaiting the results of the autopsy (which was performed on Thursday, editor’s note) and the death certificate”, explains to Toulouse news the brother of the forties, who also asked the hospital, as well as the police, for explanations. Coming from Switzerland, the man hopes to obtain answers and that the body of this woman is transported to Senegal. A kitty has also been launched on the internet in order to allow repatriation.
“To the lie is added ignominy”
Following this controversial death, some of the nursing staff say “rebellious”. “You prefer to see a ‘completely normal event’, nothing else”, they enraged, addressing the management. “To the lie is therefore added ignominy. »
“This extremely serious episode revolts us because this request for additional staff, in particular for the position of reception and orientation nurse, has been one of our demands for more than three years now. How many similar events are you going to let us go through? How many Toulouse residents do you plan to abandon this summer? »
“We will not give in! “, they maintain. “And let us announce today a hardening of our movement with a new day of action on Saturday”.
Only vital emergencies welcomed from Saturday noon
Purpan’s adult emergency services will again be impacted by a strike action this Saturday, July 9, 2022. As in recent weeks, the Toulouse University Hospital is forced to edit home patients.
“The CHU thanks the population for contacting the emergency medical aid service (SAMU Allo 15) before any trip to the emergency room of the Toulouse University Hospital. »
From noon, “and until Sunday, July 10, 2022, 8:00 a.m., the adult somatic and psychiatric emergencies of the hospital Purpan will welcome only vital emergencies addressed by the SAMU”.
The Rangueil emergencies remain open, but will have to prioritize the admissions of patients in a state of vital emergency also referred by the SAMU.
