Des patients de 50 à 70 ans atteints de grippe sévère, des enfants touchés par la bronchiolite, et des cas de Covid : face à l’afflux de malades, les hôpitaux du Gard sont en alerte. A Nîmes, le CHU Carémeau a déclenché hier soir le niveau 3 de son plan “hôpital en tension”, le plus élevé de ce dispositif.

It is the deschedulation of all non-essential surgeries on the same day and safe hospitalizations, to allow the “emptying” of emergency rooms. If the crisis worsened, the white plan would be triggered, “but we are there there, we are there. However,” says Magali Gehin, a member of the CGT Office and the staff of resentment.
On Wednesday night, Nîmes hospital recorded a peak of 268 emergency passes, confirming a higher trend since the start of the New Year. Normally, the average is 170 to two hundred patients welcome. And those are not Gentile Pathologies: today, those who arrive at Pnesoin to be hospitable during an era of 4 to six months and stinks, placed under oxygen and under the celebration of the eventver.
Une situation d’autant plus compliquée que les soignants commencent eux aussi à tomber malades. “Avant-hier, on avait un frémissement des arrêts maladie. Heureusement, ça s’est stabilisé”, selon Magali Gehin.
“The personal sector is not playing the game, in the mountains this weekend: they told us that they may not take our patients,” deplores the union for the moment. Then, at the University Hospital of Nîmes, push the walls: one moment ignited a summer added to the larger single rooms than was possible. In total, 19 more beds.
Une mesure destinée à pallier les fermetures de lits d’aval ces dernières années au profit de l’ambulatoire. En amont aux urgences, c’est le manque de personnel qui fait parfois défaut. Si Nîmes ne manque pas de médecins urgentistes, il n’en va pas de même à Alès et Bagnols-sur-Cèze. Ce qui a conduit à “des échanges réguliers avec les équipes des hôpitaux publics du groupement hospitalier de territoire Gard Cévennes Camargue (Alès, Bagnols-sur-Cèze, Uzès, Pont-Saint-Esprit)”, précise le CHU Carémeau.
However, calling 15 before going to the emergency room is strongly recommended. This week, reception at the Alès hospital is back regulated. Admissions are limits at safe hours: from 5. 30 p. m. at 6 a. m. This Thursday and this Selledi, from 10 p. m. Night until Saturday 8:30 a. m. and from 5. 30 p. m. at 5:30 a. m. Next weekend. Only the award in the rate of pregnant women and gynecological emergencies remains 24 hours a day.
In Hérault, the clinical image is also dark. According to Pierre Renard, CGT Union Delegate of Montpellier Chu. In this public establishment, he affirms that the waiting periods at this time in the emergency room can lead at 12 to four P. M. , while the peak of the flu epidemic is not yet at the time. He also denounces the lack of cooperation of personal clinics and demands regional health (ARS).
Currently, emergencies of 180 passages consisting of the day, no longer 30 for patients over 75 to 90 years. The trade unionist emits a threat of personnel fuel. The CGT du Chu of Montpellier is to present a signaling of “serious and imminent danger”, to alert the discussion with management. An unprecedented signed statement through a dozen doctors.
The renewal of the emergency department of the Hospital of the University of Montpellier is scheduled for 2028. But what does the Regional Health Agency (ARS) mean in a position to allow “retaining” until then? This is the consultation requested through the deputy secretary of El CGT, Philippe Peretti. The Union expects its report “to make the REEELS aware that the scenario is critical. “
