A 43-year-old needed urgent transportation from Kline to Pec Hospital, but the ambulance he had to send had no siren and emergency light. To carry out the transport, medical personnel requested the assistance of the police, who had to escort the vehicle at its signal. The patient passed away, while it remains unclear how long it took to organise this escort, the Signal newspaper learns.
The event happened Friday, November 13, when Albona Morina, about 43 years old, had sought medical help at the Main Centre of Family Medicine in Kline.
During the search, her health condition had deteriorated, and the staff had decided to carry her urgently to Pec’s Regional Hospital.
But the ambulance did not have signalling with flashing lights and alarm, according to information reported to the police.
For this reason, the QKMF had demanded that a police patrol escort the ambulance to the hospital.
Police have responded to the request and assisted the transportation until the emergency at Pec Regional Hospital.
After the arrival, the steward doctor has ascertained the death of 43-year-old.
How many minutes passed from the emergency transportation decision to the launch of the ambulance? Did the arrival of the police patrol have to be expected, and if so, how long did this wait last?
These are questions that will require answers from Klina KKMF leaders and responsible institutions.
It is equally important to explain why a vehicle engaged in emergency transport did not have functional signals and whether this situation was previously recognised by the institution’s directors.
So far information does not determine whether transport has been delayed or if lack of signalation has affected the tragic outcome. Hence, any conclusion to the relationship between these circumstances and the death of the patient would be premature.
At the order of the State Attorney, the lifeless body has been sent to exhibit, and the case has been initiated as death failure.
The signal where the truth speaks before the news!
