After the disappearance of the old woman from Atzara following a choking on food , Areus' replies are not long in coming.
Which responds to the concerns raised by family members and the mayor Alessandro Corona, about the absence of a doctor on board the 118 ambulances. And so, in the Sorgono station, with the vehicles often in intervention with only nurses and drivers on board.
«The 118 Central - writes Areus - sent an advanced vehicle to the site with medical personnel who promptly carried out the maneuvers to unblock the airways, known and practiced not only by doctors or nurses, but, for example, also practicable by any OSS or geriatric assistant on duty in elderly care facilities. The air ambulance team then intubated the woman who was transported to intensive care in Nuoro."
To then add: "To claim that the elderly woman died due to the absence of the doctor on board the ambulance is misleading and exploitative."
Thus, there is no lack of emphasis on the efficiency of the "INDIA" ambulances, "capable of providing highly professional assistance, which can in any case count on the doctor always present at the 118 Operations Centre".
Reassuring about the strengthening of the zonal 118 station "included in the reorganization plan of the territorial network of vehicles and crews", and listing the efforts to implement the training of specialists, with the availability of several to serve on Sorgono.
