The emergency room in Bordighera will reopen this night, as required by the contract, replacing the first aid point. From the next few hours it will therefore be possible to take care of medical and surgical emergencies; traumatological activities will be managed, for the next two or three weeks, with the support of the Sanremo Emergency Department.
«The opening of the Saint Charles emergency room – says the president of the Liguria Region Giovanni Toti – it is a promise kept and marks a new fundamental step linked to the completion of the offer of the regional healthcare system in the ASL1 territory. That of Bordighera is also an innovative model, with which a public hospital is managed by an accredited private operator, also ensuring an emergency emergency system which is added to operating rooms, diagnostic clinics, latest generation instruments, so as to guarantee citizens an effective and efficient healthcare response to their health needs”.
«The transformation from a first aid point to an emergency room – adds the Health Councilor of the Liguria Region Angelo Gratarola – is a further step towards strengthening the emergency network in the far west of Liguria and is part of the already very good response of the hospitals of Sanremo and Imperia. Naturally this structure will be of great importance not only for the residents, but also for the many tourists who reach western Liguria and, in fact, will considerably increase the actual population of this area.”
