Martín: "We already knew that the quality of health services is not the same for a Spaniard as for a Murcian, but the truth is that it is not the same for a Murcian as for a Lorca, and neither is it for a Lorca center that for those they live in neighborhoods and districts "
"A Health Counselor who blames doctors' Christmas break for breaking their promise to expand schedules at the San Diego Health Center should be stopped"
The councilor of IU-V, Gloria Martin, left this morning to the step of the information that points to the breach of the promise made last week by the Minister of Health of the Murcian Government and consisting of the normalization of the health services of the Health Center of San Diego.
The person in charge of the Murcian health promised a few days ago an extension of schedules and personnel that would make possible the correct provision of services in the afternoon, in order to attend in a correct way to what is possibly one of the most saturated health centers in the Region of Murcia.
Today the Counselor refuses, postpones the fulfillment of his promises and points as responsible to the doctors themselves and their vacations, as if the illness and the health needs of the patients of the neighborhood were also on vacation.
Gloria Marín affirms that in these times in which all the right-wing parties (PP, Ciudadanos and VOX) are betting on charging health transfers to all the autonomous communities -when not the autonomies themselves- it would be necessary to reflect on what happens in the entire region. health chain: from the very poor funding of public medical schools that offer very few places to students with a vocation when the system then turns to doctors from all countries of the world, going through the permanent recourse to the privatization of health and the outsourcing of services through concerts with private companies, all that, says Martín, is nonsense that has victims of public health users.
But even within this one, the councilor affirms, there are also classes, because although it is true that the quality of sanitary services is not the same for a Spaniard as for a Murcian, it is not the same for a Murcian as for a Lorca, and neither is for a Lorca center that for those who live in neighborhoods and districts.
Finally they end up having a fourth division health.
In the specific case of the neighborhood health center, Gloría Martín says that "it rains on wet".
It is a Center that has already lost the Emergency Service, which caused a great social mobilization of the citizens of the neighborhood, and it is also an area of ​​Lorca that has already been the subject of several unfulfilled promises in terms of health, between others and very recently the lack of budgetary allocation for 2019 -both local and regional- of the construction of the promised new San Diego health center.
So things, the Councilor of IU-V announces that it will collect all the grievances that in health are suffering the thirty thousand citizens of the neighborhoods of San Cristóbal, San Diego, Los Angeles and Apolonia to move a formal complaint to the Ombudsman. People of Spain
