Two senior practitioners and interns
At the meeting of July 9, it was proposed by the CHRU Nancy that two senior practitioners from the Nancy establishment would come and practice in Thionville one week out of six, as soon as possible, depending on the schedules and until the situation improved. . These two professionals come from the medical intensive care unit of the central hospital and the Brabois intensive care unit.
Professors Marie-Reine Losser and Bruno Levy have also offered additional academic support to the Metz-Thionville CHR, namely the reinforcement of one or two interns, to the detriment of the CHRU internship sites. “Supporting local establishments is the role of a CHRU,” indicates Bernard Dupont, general manager of CHRU Nancy.
