While waiting for the identification of a new general practitioner in the Municipality of Sant’Agata sul Santerno, from Wednesday 13 November a temporary continuity of care service will be active at the clinic in via IV Novembre, 2 (internal 2).
Initially the Local Health Authority had thought of placing the service inside an equipped camper which had already been positioned in front of the pharmacy; subsequently, thanks to the availability of Dr. Michelangelo Costa, underlines the Ausl, it was decided to use his clinic.
It will be possible to access the outpatient service directly, without reservation, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 3pm to 7pm or contact the doctor on duty by telephone on 333.8233371 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 2pm to 8pm.
It should be noted that the doctors who will take turns in the clinic will not be able to have access to the health records of patients who are currently without an assigned general practitioner, just as they will not be able to draw up dematerialized prescriptions; it will instead be possible to have a medical consultation, obtain a paper prescription for drugs or specialist services, as well as certification for absence from work. The service will remain active until the new general practitioner takes office.
