In all, Sanchez joined the waiting list "indecent" suffered by Lorca to be seen by a specialist or to perform diagnostic tests, "which are vital to their health."
Finally, Sanchez recalled that neither has proceeded to the installation of smoke detectors on all floors of the hospital Rafael Mendez - and that has a private clinic Virgen del Alcázar-agreed-despite the terrible fire that cost him six months ago the life of a patient who was admitted to a room that did not have this system.
In his appearance, the mayor also expressed his outrage at the tolerance shown by Councilwoman Jódar and Health, Antonia Lopez, "which are more concerned with cover the shame of the adviser to defend the interests of Lorca as a matter sensitive. "
