A fire in which a patient died took place on Friday in the men’s ward of the Socola Iasi Psychiatric Hospital.
“Eighteen patients with no medical conditions were evacuated and the 19th person, a 33-year-old man, was semi-conscious, had burns and symptoms of poisoning by smoke and toxic gases. Burned a mattress on the bed. After resuscitation, the victim was pronounced dead at 6:00. “, reports ISU Iaşi.
The fire was extinguished at 0400 hours, but around 0600 hours the man died, despite the resuscitation maneuvers. The probable cause of the fire was smoke.
The ward in which it was located – 1B – is the largest in the Socola Institute, and the other 17 patients were safely evacuated within 15 minutes after the first signs of fire observed, according to the manager of the Institute of Psychiatry ” Socola “Bogdan Saramet. .
He also claimed for “Ziarul of Iaşi” that the fire was extinguished by hospital employees until the arrival of ISU.
The ward was transferred to a buffer at the beginning of the year, where patients were hospitalized in individual reserves, awaiting the result of the PCR to detect whether or not they were infected with SARS-CoV-2.
Bogdan Saramet also claimed that the 33-year-old was in the first hospitalization, had no history and was taken to hospital after an acute episode. Shaarament does not know where the patient may have smoked, which would validate ISU Iaşi’s hypothesis that the fire was caused by smoking.
The manager of the Institute of Psychiatry “Socola” also explained to “Ziarul de Iaşi” that the patient who died was 33 years old, was in the first hospitalization and had no history, but had been brought in after an acute episode.
“The person is in the first hospitalization, he had not been hospitalized in Socola, all the other patients are in perfect safety. It was brought by the police, who made a mandatory search at the entrance. The patient is then taken to triage and then sent to the tampon zone, where a second search is carried out, we look for traces of aggression on the body and he is left only with underwear, then he receives pajamas and is sent to the zone of tampons. , Said Bogdan Saramet.
