A new wave of regulations at the emergency room in Alès due to a lack of doctors

Deux nouvelles nuits délicates s'annoncent aux urgences alésiennes. Midi Libre – ALEXIS BETHUNE

The Alès hospital reports two new nights where its emergency department has to regulate its influx of patients due to a lack of available doctors.  

A phenomenon that has unfortunately become regular since October. The management of the Alès hospital announces a new period of regulation of its emergency departments due to shortages among the medical staff of the department.

Vital emergencies maintained

These regulations concern the nights of Thursday 16 and Friday 17 January, each time from 10 p.m. to 8:30 a.m. The hospital still recommends, during these time slots, to contact 15 before going to the emergency department.

The reception of pregnant women and gynecological emergencies is not affected by the measure. Vital emergencies are still provided by the SMUR of Alès 24/7.
