The “Let’s Keep the Desenzano Hospital on Montecroce” Committee continues to actively work to protect the accessible healthcare services provided by the Montecroce Hospital, with particular focus on the proposed expansion of the facility. In a press release, the Committee emphasized the importance of ensuring a strategic public hospital presence, highlighting the need for adequate services for the community and comprehensive care pathways, thus avoiding continuous relocations. Among the main requests are the safeguarding of the area to prevent closures and speculation, the early construction of permanent parking facilities before the start of the works, and a commitment to transparency and citizen participation.
The Committee also stressed the importance of human resources in the quality of healthcare services, suggesting the introduction of innovative departments to meet the new needs of the area. Only through open discussions regarding the costs and timelines of the various available options can a decision be reached that ensures the future of the Montecroce Hospital as a reference point for the health of the local population.
