To address overcrowding in the emergency room at the Santissima Trinità hospital in Is Mirrionis, the Cagliari Local Health Authority is already working to "maximize the use of all available beds" in the hospital's departments and to "activate extraordinary" additional beds in various hospital facilities.
The company announced this. These measures are accompanied by a temporary rescheduling of scheduled activities to defer non-urgent admissions in favor of emergency room patients, and "the involvement and coordination of the Isili and Muravera spoke hospitals to absorb the demand for care."
"It is important to note, however," a statement reads, "that bed capacity is significantly impacted by critical issues related to the discharge phase and patient transition to community facilities. A significant number of patients in the emergency room and wards no longer have acute clinical needs, but rather complex, predominantly social-assistance-related issues . This is a structural issue that requires ongoing multidisciplinary coordination rather than emotional responses."
"The general management," the statement concludes, "is working tirelessly to refine the exit pathways for stabilized patients, ensuring a smooth turnover and restoring the Emergency Department to its natural function of responding to emergencies."
