Images of terror surprised the emergency hospital in Resita. COVID-19 patients, mostly elderly, are naked in the corridors of the pulmonology department, directly on the cement.

Some of them are even in agony and cannot move. Photos taken by a patient were posted on a social network.

“Come on, I can’t!” It is the cry of despair of a patient who, with his last strength, tries to ask for help. Nobody seems to notice. The images show patients standing up, unable to get up, immobilized patients trying in vain to reach a glass of water near the bed and corpses abandoned in the room, among other patients.

“Patients are treated like animals. They are left on the ground, the medical staff does not take into account any patient who is there,” the patient’s daughter was outraged, quoted by observatornews.ro.

Her mother and her friend had nightmarish moments in the hospital. “Including the infusers you have to buy, syringes, bandages. If surgery is needed you have to come with them from home, the list is done,” he says.

Reactions of the authorities

However, the authorities apologize for not having had time to do anything so far. The manager is in office for only three months.

Alina Stancovici, manager of the Resita Emergency Hospital: “In fact, the images are not the most beautiful. It should be noted that they were captured in the pulmonology department. Where is the building intended for the treatment of positive patients.”

All he could do was ask for funding from those who run the hospital.


“The building itself is a dilapidated building. If there has been no investment for 30 years, you can see the conditions it offers,” says Alina Stancovici, Resita Emergency Hospital.

Romeo Dunca, President of CJ Caras-Severin: “We inherited a very difficult situation, not only the Resita hospital has problems. We are blocked in absolutely all sectors. There is no money, we have very large debts ”.

“A large part of the doctors are present, after which they either go home or treat their patients through private practices,” added Romeo Dunca.

“We have opened an internal investigation”

Alina Stancovici, manager of the Resita Emergency Hospital, also explained to Digi 24 how this situation came about.

“I am the technician who points the finger, but I am the technician who has been in this position for a few weeks. The building you see is from 1957, but it really worked, so I applied to the Ministry of Health on September 20. In Caras Severin, until a week ago, there were only two Covid hospitals: the Caransebes hospital and the Resita hospital.

The pulmonology department, where the photos are taken, has been expanded since the summer. It reached 70 beds. From every corner where a place for a patient could be arranged, the capacity increased. In this section all patients with COVID were taken, of all categories, regardless of age, regardless of pathology, with kidney disease, with heart disease, including mental illness. There are categories of patients who must be treated and cared for with special measures. Unfortunately, not all departments accept COVID patients.
In fact, the conditions are not the best. We work with reduced medical staff. The same sick half-medical staff take turns from morning to night, the same doctors take turns every other day.

The images were captured before being cleaned. They are deficient, I know them, I face them every day. I believe that investing in human resources in the health system and in its logistics resources should give us pause. I am convinced that the same thing happens in all the hospitals in the country.

We open an internal investigation to see who the patients are, who cared for them and when the photos were taken. I spoke with the medical staff to identify the situation and take the necessary action. I know it is a disaster in the hospital, we all recognize what is happening in the system. “
