A brand new hospital by 2028 in Montceau-les-Mines, in the Saône-et-Loire. This is the project led by Mayor Marie-Claude Jarrot, together with Deputy Louis Marguerite, of whom he is deputy, the hospital’s supervisory board, the regional hospital group (GHT) and the Regional Health Agency for Health (ARS). This new hospital could be built next to the current hospital center. The project could cost between 60 and 70 million euros, a figure that takes into account the destruction of the current buildings, which are now very dilapidated.
For thirty years the Jean Bouveri hospital has never been renovated. “The time has come to allow the reconstruction and renovation of this hospital and to make the healthcare offer more understandable. Working groups are being set up to bring this matter to the highest level in the state ”, explains Marie-Claude Jarrot.
Local hospital
The mayor would like the future hospital to get the local hospital label. Created by the Ségur de la santé, these establishments have specific missions. The offer of the main university hospitals (research, cutting-edge interventions) and hospitals with surgical and maternity services complete the offer. Local hospitals thus constitute a first level of access to care, thanks to the collaboration with the health workers of the city. But above all they have the advantage of operating with a management contribution and not for a fee, which guarantees better financial stability.
Maintain emergencies
In a press release published in late October, following the announcement by Marie-Claude Jarrot, the Codef (Collective of Hospital Users) found the local hospital’s label to be “a red herring” and expressed concern over a possible “closure of services”.
Incidentally, the Codef has called for a return to conventional surgery, which disappeared in 2018, after the closure of the maternity ward in 2009. “The disappearance of the surgery department has a deleterious impact on the health of an elderly and frail population”. sums up the collective.
But Marie-Claude Jarrot wants to be pragmatic. “Unfortunately, we can no longer restore conventional surgery. But our emergencies are not threatened and we want to keep the small intervention in outpatient surgery. Furthermore, it is not a question of drawing a line under the imaging service, which works very well, “she announces. For now, discussions are still underway to define the contours of the future hospital.
