The management of the Saumur hospital center then on a new increase in entries to the emergency department. “The peak of the flu epidemic has not yet been reached. We receive a higher number of seized elderly people who require hospitalizations ”underlines the Saumur health establishment. This situation “Makes more difficult beds management between the criteria of double rooms and single rooms and men – women. Hospitalization durations are longer due to the higher age of hospitalized people. »» For these reasons, the Saumur Hospital Center invites the population not to come first of all to its emergency department when this does not appear justified. “In order to preserve the medical and caregivers mobilized, it is necessary to continue to have the reflex to call 15 or 116-117 in order to be oriented towards the most suitable solution for care and in particular the medical center on duty »»says director Jean-Paul Quillet. And add: “This responsible attitude will allow on the one hand to avoid hours of waiting for non -urgent patients but also to our staff to be able to dedicate themselves to patients emerging from management for a proven and/or vital emergency. »»
