Visiting Montauban, Jean Castex announced his desire to maintain the activity of the Castel-Moissac hospital by allocating financial means to it.
“We have programmed a budget of 7.3 million euros for emergencies and the technical platform of the Castelsarrasin-Moissac hospital, which will allow activities to be maintained. There is no question of letting our guard down in this establishment.” Visiting the Montauban hospital to discuss the construction of a new establishment (read on page 18), Jean Castex, the Prime Minister, did not hide his desire to maintain the activity of the local hospital, although aware of the need “to reinvest in health”.
The announcements made by the Prime Minister concerning the Castelsarrasin-Moissac hospital center satisfy Sylvia Pinel. “This is a file on which I have invested a lot. I had asked the Prime Minister for guarantees with regard to the future of the Castel-Moissac hospital. His statement today goes in this direction. I was able to exchange regularly with the services of the Prime Minister and with the ARS. The envelope of 7.3 million euros announced for the restructuring, on the Moissac site, of the technical platforms of the medical service, the ambulatory and surgery even goes beyond what was planned since we were initially told of 6 million. I also remember the wish expressed by Jean Castex to see the two public hospitals in Tarn-et-Garonne work together. is very important.”
In the process, the Region announced that within the framework of European funds, the intermunicipal hospital could soon benefit from support of up to 202,500 euros, i.e. 90% of the total amount for the acquisition of medical equipment and transmission for the mobile emergency and resuscitation service (SMUR).
Regarding the closure of the emergency department at night, a meeting must take place at the end of March between the management of the hospital and the Regional Hospitalization Agency (ARS) to take stock of this measure in force for a few months. A priori, no emergency doctor came to reinforce the team in place.
