“We have the emergency at heart and therefore we are happy to be here today. As Azienda Zero we have implemented an important reform of the 118 regional emergency. This has allowed us to reorganize the world of emergency and emergency training, and therefore to see this approach from another perspective, the link with the single European number for emergencies (Nue) 112, with 116-117 which is fundamental when talking about local medicine”. This was said by Carlo Picco, general director of the ASL City of Turin, speaking at the National Congress of the Cultural Emergency Area (Ace), organized by the Italian Society of Anaesthesia, Analgesia, Resuscitation and Intensive Care (Siiarti) in Turin.
“The 116-117 – he underlines – will configure the services previously offered only by the emergency medical service, implementing them and making them decidedly more complex, so in this context the relationship between 112, 118 central and 116-117 will be able to really make the difference in local medicine We are also trying to build a helipad to land the helicopter near San Giovanni Bosco which is a hub hospital in our city.”
