The Bordeaux University Hospital is facing a staff crisis. He is obliged to regulate the number of patients entering his emergency department. Explanations.
In Gironde, one of the largest hospital sites in France is in crisis. For lack of personnel, the emergencies of the CHU Pellegrin in Bordeaux will no longer be able to accommodate all patients at night. A filtering system has been put in place to ensure proper management of serious cases. In this university hospital, since the health crisis, attendance has increased by 50%. At the same time, the number of doctors has fallen sharply.
To operate normally, the emergency pole of Pellegrin would need 40% additional emergency physicians. The most important hospital center in the region is suffocating. New staff are requested by the nursing staff in place. The entry regulation system could last. The emergencies of the Bordeaux University Hospital should accommodate 30% fewer patients every day. To take care of these people, the authorities hope that city doctors will take over.
