Dori Peñas, IU-Green councilor Hon.
Lorca City Council denounced the closure of the medical offices of certain villages during the summer months, this training issue and denounced in its election manifesto to avoid that happening.
Peñas stressed that the peripheral centers affected are dependent South Lorca (Campillo and Torrecilla open half performance), which depend on San Diego (La Campana and Director) and, above all, dependent center Sutullena health, the most affected (Pia Bridge, Listening, Cazalla, Aguaderas and Campo Lopez, whose users will have to scroll to Sutullena in some cases, and in other Puri).
In this sense, the mayor has said that Lorca is a municipality in the region where fewer substitutions are made during the year, or to cover low, no holidays, or any other matter, leaving the helpless staff so that they can get along as you can, making this issue that services are most deficient.
He asserted that in the case of doctors they accumulate quotas, bent, ie, make his work and that of partner or partners that are going on vacation and gave as an example the health center Lorca Centre in which only six nurses cover the work of the whole school in August.
Rocks referred to the statement issued a few days ago the Doctor Primary Care in the Region about the lack of substitutes to cover holidays clinics, regretting the continued decline of the stock replacements and attributed to the lack of human resource planning, drifting exclusive management or terms of savings, a situation that is forcing practitioners to be replaced including to take your holiday so this is a work overload for workers and discomfort for patients.
Similarly, Peñas said that the shortage of contracting and precarious contracts are causing the flight of health workers to other communities that offer better working conditions.
From IU-Greens claim that this issue is of enormous importance, and although it is a regional competition, the City should be involved for Lorca not have to suffer losses resulting from the cuts in health, especially the elderly and / or with mobility difficulties, especially when a former councilor occupies a position of trust in the Rafael Méndez hospital with responsibility for human resources.
