UDINE. Waiting, even four days before being hospitalized. Twenty-five Covid patients are waiting for a bed to be made available. And meanwhile they remain temporarily placed in the emergency room in Udine. Where the pressure stays high. Director Mario Calci also confirms it.
Patients waiting
“Like many other structures – he declares – we are under pressure from the large number of people waiting to be hospitalized. Patients of different severity and of different age groups “. My thoughts turn to the return of the Fvg in the yellow zone and Calci does not hide some concern.” We must not lower our guard, otherwise – he says – we will have another phase of increase in infections and hospitalizations that could seriously endanger the health system. “Everyone must be vigilant.”
The CGIL allegations
Meanwhile, the unions go on the attack. Do not try to unload the responsibilities on the CGIL, always at the forefront in denouncing the staff shortage in Asufc since 2009. If the emergency has reached its current size, the responsibilities fall on the Region and the general management of the Company, which it must act immediately to expand the organic plants in a structural way and restore an adequate organizational structure to the hospitals, prevention departments and local structures ”.
Udine CGIL secretary Natalino Giacomini and public service general secretary Andrea Traunero are not calling for resignations at the top of Friuli’s central health authority, but a series of requests to strengthen the staff. Among the critical points: “Delays in the tracking system, poor security conditions for employees, closures of departments and structures, see the San Daniele or Cividale surgery, work overload in emergency rooms and emergency medicine.”
Cisl’s proposals
Focused actions to attend the emergency by implementing personnel and ensuring their safety. The CISL FP management team also asks Asufc CEO Massimo Braganti. “In the last 30 days – he declared – the exponential growth of positive cases in the Udine area has led to a high number of hospitalizations, deaths and positive staff.
The authorities must request the support of doctors, nurses and social health workers of the Military Health and Red Cross and of the personnel of other less difficult realities managed by the Civil Protection calls ”. While waiting for external reinforcements, it is necessary to “prepare an internal company availability notice for nurses and observers who would travel voluntarily to support colleagues in critical situations.
Parallel to the resources of the company and / or regional budget, for non-contracting, it is requested to monetize with the pricing of additional services outside working hours to employees who voluntarily make themselves available to work 12-hour shifts (with the necessary breaks) or additional changes mainly in the Covid areas ».
Replicas of the company
“The CISL presents proposals – said Braganti – that we have already taken into consideration when taking actions to search for personnel at the national level, through Civil Protection, military or voluntary health associations since we have sent our professionals to support the residences of elderly or Red Cross.
The search for personnel has been a constant for months and we have never underestimated this criticality, this must be clear and I do not accept the accusations of inaction. Also in the field of hospitalization, the problem is not the lack of beds but of the staff who manage the wards ».
In this sense, 43 nurses will enter service at the end of the month. “In this phase, to help health personnel,” he later stated, “citizens must respect the rules, avoiding gatherings like the ones I have seen in some supermarkets.” –
