The pressure that the PSOE, together with neighborhood neighborhood groups, maintain in the defense of the interests of users of health area III begins to bear fruit.
On November 5, the Ombudsman returned to reopen proceedings with the Murcia Health Service, requesting a new report in which those services of area III are specified in which the maximum time limit established for external consultations is exceeded, as well as the average times that correspond to each of the specialties and the measures to adopt for the improvement of primary care in Lorca, as the case that affects the health center of San Diego
The deputy spokesman of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Marisol Sánchez Jódar stressed that thanks to the pressure that the Lorca socialists, from the hand of the users of health in Lorca, have maintained the reopening of primary care consultations in afternoon schedule of the San Diego health center.
This measure responds to the mobilization that the PSOE began last January, collecting hundreds of signatures to support this petition, and that were finally presented through a motion that the Municipal Socialist Group defended in the Plenary Session of the City of Lorca, in its sessions for the month of February and the month of April of this year.
Sánchez Jódar celebrates that the Regional Government give in "at last" to this historical claim of the PSOE and neighbors, necessary to "decongest" the consultations of the health center of San Diego.
The mayor linked this progress also to the next call for a monographic, extraordinary, that the PSOE has forced to be held to analyze the serious situation that presents the area III health.
The mayor says that, however, remain "very vigilant" because, despite this progress, the Popular Party continues to fail most of the commitments it acquired, precisely when they closed the urgencies of the health center of San Diego, as well as afternoon consultations, in 2015.
The PSOE recalls that, in 2016, the Popular Party committed to install a Continuous Care Point that, in part, would make up for the absence of the emergency service in the San Diego area.
Similarly, the construction of the new health center in the area of ​​San Cristóbal that will see a second SUAP for the city, planned since 2008 according to the calculations of the Murcian Health Service and committed as a result of the closure of emergencies "remains stagnant."
"While the Mayor of Lorca continues without doing his homework, breaking his word, and still does not make available to the Ministry of Health the necessary land, the regional government will still have the perfect excuse not to move a finger, and without contributing the final solution to the overcrowding of the health center of San Diego, which is none other than the construction of the new health center, "says the socialist mayor.
The PSOE maintains the pressure through the Ombudsman to solve the serious shortcomings of area III of health.
On November 5, the Ombudsman reopened proceedings with the Murcian Health Service, requesting a new report that specifies those services in area III in which the maximum time limit established for external consultations is exceeded, as well as the average times that correspond to each of the specialties and the measures to adopt for the improvement of primary care in Lorca, as the case that affects the health center of San Diego.
The PSOE denounces that the Councilor breastfeed and hide that Lorca has the worst waiting lists in the entire Region
Sánchez Jódar regrets that the Health Counselor, the Popular Party, has come to Lorca to "draw chest" from the waiting lists in surgical interventions "making up the data and not telling the whole truth."
The mayor has stressed that, to improve their accounts, the Murcian Health Service is streamlining "minor surgery, ambulatory, to the detriment of more complex interventions and are those that harbor greater delays."
What the Health Counselor has not said anything about is the embarrassing waiting lists, both for the performance of tests and diagnostic techniques, and for first specialist consultation.
"It is a shame that the Counselor presumes health management when Lorca and the whole area III health brings together more than 50% of patients without date for first consultation of the entire Region of Murcia, and that exceeds 6,700" people, who do not numbers".
