Doctor Gerlando Verruso will continue his activity at the helm of the emergency room of the Agrigento hospital, revoking the resignation presented a few days ago. The result guarantees continuity in the management of the emergency-urgency area of the “San Giovanni di Dio” and was achieved this morning following a clarifying meeting which took place with the extraordinary commissioner of the Provincial Health Authority of Agrigento, Giuseppe Capodieci .
“Dr. Verruso – commented Commissioner Capodieci – With his choice he demonstrates a strong sense of belonging to the Company as well as to the good of the Agrigento community and this is why I intend to extend my thanks to him. With an urgent provision, the strategic management has arranged for the temporary assignment of two additional doctors to the Agrigento emergency room, trying to fill the moment of congestion which initially pushed the head doctor to represent with his resignation the contingent difficulty of the Department. In addition to this provision, we are giving a decisive boost to the competition procedure with which we intend to recruit, in the short term, around twenty new medical managers. The attention towards the emergency-urgency area of the hospitals throughout the province – concludes the manager – are maximum and, in the short term, new renovation works will begin on both the emergency room in Agrigento and that of Sciacca, whose competence has recently passed from the regional commissioner’s management for the covid emergency to that of our company”.
