With the intention of “making all our professionalism available to the company and the population and not making a sterile criticism”, the operators of the First aid at the San Salvatore de L’Aquila hospital wrote a letter to the mayor Pierluigi biondi, to the CEO of Asl 1, Roberto Testa, to the medical director Sabrina cicogna, to the San Salvatore Medical Director, Giovanna micolucci, and the director of the Emergency Department, Luigi valenti, to represent the “serious and dramatic” situation in which they are forced to operate.
“The work stations granted for the isolation of Covid 19 patients and Covid suspects – we read in the aforementioned note IlCapoluogo.it came into possession – they are insufficient and inadequate. Both curtains placed in the square in front of them are now inevitably occupied by more Covid patients who often spend more than 24 hours waiting for a bed. “Also, the same curtains are”cold and poorly lit, no toilets, no oxygen intakes except for the cylinders that need to be constantly replaced“To further complicate the work of health workers” the presence, constant for weeks, of a construction site Open to modification of premises and spaces of the Emergency Service ”.
For this reason, emergency room operators “decline any responsibility Civil and criminal law derived from the inadequacy and delay in helping patients, the possibility of transmission of the infection by health workers who in turn are infected involuntarily ”.
In the note, however, some are also underlined solutions that could improve the situation, starting with the “division” of the emergency room into two areas “,one dirty and one clean “, to reduce the risk of contamination between the two areas. “Of course – add the health workers who signed the letter – it would be desirable to have three doctors and their staff permanently at least on day shifts.”
