“Due to a strong peak in activity, access is only reserved for vital emergencies. Since Saturday afternoon, this is the type of message that is posted on the emergency doors of the Saint-Nazaire hospital center. At the end of the school holidays, the service is completely saturated, which prompted the management to take this exceptional decision, that of welcoming only the most serious cases.
“There is no closure of the emergency room, it is a reorientation of non-emergency patients to other structures, specifies a senior health officer, this Sunday. They are sent to Nantes or Vannes, to hospitals that can better accommodate them than us. It is also recommended to turn to SOS Doctors. "
No more beds on the hospital.
Emergency closed ..

As in many emergency services, the agents have been mobilizing for several months to request more resources for Saint-Nazaire. The management of the establishment has planned to communicate officially Monday on its reception difficulties. The situation is not expected to change by then.
