We publish an open letter to the President of the Region written by the Cimo doctors' union, signed by the Businco representative Alessandro Murenu, regarding the upcoming announced closure of the Oncology operating rooms.
***
We would like to underline some points that in these months do not seem to have been highlighted correctly and therefore not fully understood, except by some meritorious associations of patients and relatives who live every day of their lives the difficulties, sometimes insurmountable, that afflict them. The person writing them, in addition to living them every day in the profession, has sometimes also had the opportunity to live them as a relative, even recently, and despite belonging as some might think to a "privileged category" has suffered the difficulties.
By virtue of this, I too would like to ask, as has already been done by many, for an interruption of your deafening silence on the matter which, together with all the Businco operators, I would like to sensitize to give an answer in the primary interest of the patients and their families.
Without wanting to slavishly recall the various actions undertaken by the Arnas leaders in recent years, we can certainly say, in agreement with many, that a large part of these have lost their way in the search for the squaring of a circle of which, alas, we would like the true hidden meaning to escape.
To be more precise, since the pandemic, several resolutions have been adopted with a vague flavor of conflict between them. To cite an example that I know better: Thoracic Surgery has been renamed Thoracic Interventional Surgery and Endoscopy and aggregated to the Surgical Oncology Department; this, as is known, in the chaotic restructuring of the Businco operating rooms that is looming, should be transferred to San Michele in compliance with Ministerial Decree 70, a decree that regulates the NHS and which all actors in the affair are advised to read carefully, without being misled by dubious vested interests.
