Health, Pd Calabria: “The blocking of the transport of dialysis by the ASP of Catanzaro, Occhiuto intervene immediately” is unacceptable “

The Democratic Party of Calabria forcefully contest the decision of Suspend transport for hemodialyh patients in the health districts of Catanzaro and Soverato. “Priest 150 chronic patients of an essential service – the Calabrian dem affirm in a note – is an unjustifiable and unacceptable act, which translates into an institutional abandonment of fragile people, forced to undergo an indispensable therapy for their survival. This absurd suspension confirms the comatose state of the Calabria health service. How can you leave without a means of transport who, every two days, must go to the hospital to undergo a life -saving treatment? It is inconceivable that at this point we arrive for purely bureaucratic issues, downloading the inefficiencies of those who would have the duty to guarantee essential services on patients ». The PD Calabria calls into question the Calabrian health commissioner, Roberto Occhiuto, asking him to intervene immediately. «Occhiuto does it see the case or not? The government commissioner – the Dem thunder – cannot be turned to the other side: he has the duty to guarantee these patients the service in question, without forcing them to fight for their sacrosanct right. The associations that had guaranteed the transport of dialysis are no longer humiliated. Now there are even provisions that provide for the reimbursement of just 1/5 of the cost of fuel per kilometer ». “Occhiuto – ask the Calabrian dem – convene the parties immediately, impose the modification of the current regulatory rules and guarantee the service without further delays. The dialysis are not children of a minor God, but citizens with full right to assistance and respect. It is immoral – they conclude – that they are treated like a weight, when they are people who already face complex, debilitating and tiring therapy ».
