Sara Viva Sorge, the 27-year-old nurse who died in a dramatic road accident between San Vito dei Normanni and San Michele Salentino, in the province of Brindisi, was returning home “after the second consecutive night shift”.
The young woman lost control of her Renault Twingo shortly after dawn when she went off the road and crashed into a lighting pole. The impact left her no way out.
Her father was waiting for her at home and, not seeing her returning from work, he traveled the provincial road in the opposite direction, to look for her: the car was on the side of the two-lane road, in the open countryside.
As specified by the FP CGIL of Brindisi, Sorge had spent his second consecutive night in the ward, in the Ceglie Messapica rehabilitation center where he had been serving for just over two weeks: "He had worked for 20 days at the San Raffaele Foundation, and is died of an accident while leaving her job and had been on two consecutive nights after a rather demanding weekly shift, given the workload that employees are subjected to. "
The situation had been denounced several times: according to the union, "this time it was not an accident on a construction site or in a factory, but as they say in the jargon, an accident in progress. less severe ".
The management, employees and collaborators of the San Raffaele Foundation, which manages the ASL of Brindisi, expressed "deep dismay at what happened", gathering around the family "in the knowledge that no one, unfortunately, will ever be able to compensate for the pain in the face of a tragedy as great as it is unacceptable ". The general management of the ASL also showed closeness to the relatives and friends of the girl "torn too soon from her affections and her profession".
