The Nebel neighborhood Health Center began this week the night service announced in due course by the mayor Francisco Azcué and the Secretary of Health, Diego Sauré, as part of an extended hours program for all municipal Health Centers.
Sauré recalled that in the month of September, 24-hour coverage was established for the health post located on the Costanera, assigning personnel from the Municipal Integral Emergency Service (SIME), and that it is planned to have the four cardinal points of the city covered with 24-hour health centers by the end of the year. In addition to the one in the Nebel neighborhood in the eastern zone, it is planned to add Los Pájaros next month, followed by Villa Adela and then Osvaldo Magnasco. For the latter two, work is underway on the repair of the ambulances that will be permanently available.
The Secretary of Health highlighted that “everything is on track” to be able to comply with the schedule established by his Secretariat, to fulfill a commitment made by the mayor Francisco Azcué to reinforce the health care provided by the Municipality through its 18 Health centers.
“The Mayor especially entrusted us with the care of the Primary Health Care Centers (CAPS). To meet this objective, work was done on administrative reorganization, the formation of new work teams, and the allocation of more resources to maintenance tasks and building improvements,” explained the head of the Health portfolio.
“We are improving the facilities in the 18 municipal centers, bringing in medicines and addressing the most urgent repairs; so that health professionals and workers are more comfortable and lack nothing, because all this translates into better care for the families who attend these municipal spaces,” he detailed.
24-HOUR CARE
Sauré remarked that “the goal is to keep the health centers open 24 hours a day.” He recalled that “this was a commitment the mayor made to the community and we are working to fulfill it; we are already extending hours, new services have been incorporated, and there are significant advances in the organization of this new scheme.”
NEW DENTAL CHAIR
The Nebel neighborhood Health Center incorporated this Friday a dental chair donated by a local professional. The dental chair is in addition to the building renovations carried out at the Health Center and the improvement of the general conditions of the place, which has been operating 24 hours a day since October 1st.
