It is not just Saivomuotka that has been affected.
The entire eastern Kiruna municipality has lacked access to an ambulance on site in the immediate area during evenings, weekends and summers.
80 percent of all hours of the year, the door to the ambulance station in Vittangi has been locked.
Hopefully, however, Sixten has made its last contribution to the Norrbotten Region.
After Assignment review interview with regional councilor Kenneth Backgård, the ambulance in Vittangi will after six years regain its round-the-clock staffing.
