The weakening of the San Martino di Oristano hospital continues, which loses another medical director. A resolution of the “Brotzu” company of Cagliari, signed in recent days, approves the transfer of one doctors who work in the Immunohematology and Transfusion Medicine Service of San Martino. The operational unit that deals with thalassemia and TAO, transfusion therapy and donors, will now have to face night and holiday availability to be managed with only 5 doctors, compared to the 9 + 1 expected.
The news was disseminated by the representatives of the Committee for the right to health of the Province of Oristano, doctors Maria Carmela Marras and Gisella Masala.
“In the deafening silence of this health policy, another essential hospital sector for the citizens of Oristano has been further weakened”, commented the representatives of the committee. “Apparently the protests of citizens, patient associations, committees, trade unions and the Order of Doctors continue to go unheard”.
“We wonder what else needs to be done to stop this purchase campaign by the larger hospitals at the expense of those peripheral. We also ask ourselves if the management of the Assl wants to assist supine this latest mugging “, reads a note released by the representatives of the committee, who ask for” an immediate and decisive response from our political representatives in the Region, especially of those who sit in the benches of the majority and in the Health Commission “.
“We want to know”, Marras and Masala conclude, “which concrete initiatives they intend to take immediately to protect the right to health of those who voted for them”.
