The municipality of Vicente Lopez began work to expand the municipal Houssay Hospital with a new medical guard in the west of the party. This initiative is aimed at providing high -quality medical services to residents of districts, such as Munro, Villa Adelina and Florida Oeste, who moved east to get urgent help. The mayor of Soledad Martinez headed the announcement and emphasized that the work is part of the investment plan of public health, “so that all neighbors have access to a quality service.”
How will the new guard improve health access in Western Vicent Lopez?
The new guard, located in the former Carrillo medical center, will work 24 hours and will have 8 hospitalization beds, shocks, sorting, officials and nursing areas. According to Martinez, more than 30% of patients who received treatment in 2023 came from this area: “We prevent our neighbors from moving to the other end of the municipality. Public health care should be affordable and effective. ”
The sorting system that classifies emergency situations with color codes (red, yellow, green) will reduce waiting time. “This structure improves the quality of medical care and patient safety,” the mayor explained during the tour.
Criticism of Kicillof
Martinez contrasted the local reality with the reality of the Buenos -Aires province: “There are no shifts in provincial hospitals, there is little attention, and professionals are not very good payments. We invest our own resources in maintaining the management model, which is priority to neighbors. ” He added that many residents left their prepaid or social work to visit the municipal system, which was described as “fast, effective and with good professionals.”
“There are no shifts in provincial hospitals, there is little attention, and professionals are not very good payments,” Martinez said about the management of the Governor in the field of healthcare.
In recent years, the municipality has completed more than 20 works in medical centers, including the expansion of technological equipment and services. Houssay gvarding adds to this network, which Martinean defined as “one of the best public systems in the province”.
The work, at present at the demolition stage, will completely extend the space, which previously housed the department of an immediate response. “We continue to expand the services so that attention is closer and modern,” the general chapter concluded.
