Milan, November 25 (Adnkronos Health) – The President of the Lazio Region, Francesco Rocca, inaugurated the Emergency Medicine Unit of the Tor Vergata Polyclinic in Rome, established thanks to Jubilee funds and dedicated to the Emergency and Reception Department (DEA). The intervention, implemented within the scheduled time – we read in the notes – is a strategic step in strengthening the Emergency and Urgency areas, in the context of the continuous growth of access to emergency rooms. In fact, in recent years, the Tor Vergata Polyclinic has recorded a significant increase in demand for emergency care, with an increase in patients with high clinical complexity and more frequent use of observation and intensive care pathways. The completion of the Emergency Medicine Unit addresses this need, offering new space, advanced technology and a more efficient organization for acute patient care.
Located on the 4th floor of Tower 8, the new unit – described in the notes – has 20 beds, which is fully operational. The equipment includes: 14 ordinary hospital beds (6 double rooms and 2 single rooms, one of which has a disabled-accessible bathroom); The 6 monitored beds, in line with sub-intensive care standards, are located in 3 double rooms located at the department entrance. The rooms have been designed to guarantee timely, continuous and multidisciplinary assistance, facilitating the management of patients who require advanced clinical monitoring and/or rapid stabilization before transfer to specialist departments.
This renovation and finishing intervention involved approximately 1,000 square meters of functional surface area, in addition to approximately 300 square meters of common areas and waiting areas, with a total investment of 4,209,000 euros. This expansion allows DEA to have more fluid care pathways, reducing wait times and congestion in high-intensity emergency room areas. With this strategic intervention – the conclusion of the note – the Tor Vergata Polyclinic confirms its commitment to improving the quality of services and making the emergency-emergency line more efficient, accessible and adequate to the needs of a growing population.
