The midwife relocates to the French Quarter office to care for pregnant women by appointment
The Puerto Lumbreras Health Center continues to plan its services to provide the best care to citizens in the face of the health alert caused by the coronavirus, with the aim of avoiding infections.
According to the latest epidemiological report published yesterday by the Ministry of Health, the municipality is one of the towns in the Region with less than 5 cases.
However, the mayor María Ángeles Tunisia points out that "we cannot relax or trust ourselves, we have to protect ourselves and those who take care of us as well, and continue to strictly adhere to the confinement and prevention measures set by the competent authorities. We have taken the measures more appropriate according to the dictates of the health authorities. "
In the Health Center, telephone consultation takes precedence, patients in isolation are monitored for symptoms, and when an appointment is made, the doctor calls the patient to see what he needs and if the reason makes it necessary for him to come to the center or follow up by phone.
If a person goes to the Health Center, a triage is done at the door, distinguishing between administrative issues or patients with respiratory problems, and between children and adults.
The ground floor has been reserved for adults with symptoms of cough, fever, dyspnea, etc.
and the upper floor for pediatrics, so that children are always distanced from adults as a preventive measure.
The pediatric nurse continues to work on a regular basis and vaccinates children who require it.
The consultations of the Health Center of El Esparragal and the French Quarter were transferred to the Puerto Lumbreras office, and many procedures can be done electronically at www.murciasalud.es The electronic prescription has been extended to 180 days, and withdrawals are processed by telephone .
The midwife relocates to the French Quarter office to care for pregnant women by appointment
On the other hand, the midwife has moved to the office in the French Quarter, with the aim that pregnant women do not have to go to the Health Center and thus avoid risks as it is an area with a greater influx of patients.
Only pregnancies, and newborns are cared for if they need timely consultation with the pediatrician, and preventive activities such as cytology, visits, group activities, maternal education, etc. have been canceled.
The pregnant woman must call 968400139 before going to make an appointment or resolve the consultation by phone to avoid travel and crowds, since two women cannot meet in the waiting room.
As for postpartum care, the midwife calls and attends all the women from Lumbre who give birth at the Rafael Méndez Hospital by telephone.
If it is elsewhere, the woman in labor is the one to call.
To facilitate the assessment work of the newborn, the City Council will provide the midwife with a telephone number to contact by video call and assess the baby's condition, the evolution of the umbilical cord, tone, crying and other parameters that tell how the drink to your new life.
"The City Council has responded quickly so that the pregnant women are safe and these cases are only attended to in the center of the French Quarter. Questions are resolved by telephone and they only move if it is for a necessary reason," says María Ángeles Tunisia.
