The collapse and overcrowding in the emergency department of Hospital del Rosell de Cartagena is a fact that has been repeated sharply in at least three occasions in recent months and severely affects patient care.
The latest incident happened on Thursday and Friday of last week, days in which there were 89 people in the ER, 30 beds in corridors and 59 patients in the three observation units (virtual units of plant).
In addition, the emergency travel time to plant has exceeded three days.
The Health Center will work to suffer an intolerable strain, and basic rights of patients are greatly affected since it is impossible to maintain a minimum privacy when beds are separated by curtains in the hallway.
For all from UPyD ask those responsible for the Health Service of Murcia and the hospital itself to take appropriate measures, both in terms of spaces and the health personnel for the care of patients suitable standard and to work of doctors, nurses and other medical personnel can make a reasonable and not subject to stress conditions that have to suffer in situations like that are related.
