The deputy spokesman of the PSOE in Lorca, Marisol Sanchez has complained that the "poverty of health resources in Lorca discrimination against other areas of the Region of Murcia" is causing a "dangerous saturation of emergency services, which in many cases becomes inhuman, especially in Lorca Center-San Diego Health ".
Sanchez Jodar believes that "the closing of consultations afternoons in most offices of the municipality, together with cuts in personnel and material resources are making the Emergency look daily saturated and, therefore, that the attention paid Third is practically. "
Marisol Sanchez recalled how in 2010, "the regional executive of the PP Lorca took the only mobile ICU hospital which had the municipality."
According to the socialist mayor, this cut has forced the Medical Emergency Unit (UME) to have to address transfers between hospitals, including emergency calls, not only of Lorca, but also of the neighboring towns of Totana and Puerto Lumbreras "so that" it is clear that the only UME Lorca that counts is for most of the day out of our town. "
According to Sanchez Jodar, this deficit makes the SUAP, emergency department or primary care have to cover what can not attend the UME.
In fact, as the socialist mayor has known "the only SUAP with Lorca counts is taking an average of 12 daily notices, scattered throughout our municipality."
Saturation "threatening to users, and causes impotence among health professionals, from here send a message of support, appreciation and gratitude, then they do what best they can, despite the limited resources they have" .
In this regard, the deputy spokesman of the Socialist Party claims that the Regional Government of the PP is committing this grave danger to the users of public health in Lorca, because "the Ministry of Health is condemning Lorca and their healthcare professionals to attend, with a single SUAP and a shared UME with Puerto Lumbreras Totana and the emergency department of a municipality as Lorca, with 1676 km2 and with more than 91,000 inhabitants. "
Meanwhile, other areas such as the Sea Less have more resources and means, despite serve fewer people and a much smaller geographical area.
In this regard, Sanchez Jódar stressed that "it is clear the clear discrimination suffered by Lorca," adding "not knowing who is responsible for making the distribution of these resources, but who is doing it, is doing an inhuman and unjust way with Lorca ".
Therefore, the Municipal Socialist Group will require through the next full "maintenance of the emergency department of San Diego, the opening of the emergency department of Lorca Sutullena, incomprehensibly closed despite its opening in 2015, the recovery in concert with the UCI Mobile (UME) and allocations by SUAP more for Lorca ".
