Genuine emergencies are always admitted to hospital
There are usually long queues at the entrance to the Diospi Suyana Hospital. The available tickets (coupons) are drawn by lot in the morning. Anyone who comes away empty-handed can register as an emergency case. Some nurses evaluate these patients. If it really is a serious illness, the person seeking help is admitted to the emergency room. Experience shows that half of the patients are admitted to the hospital at the second attempt.
Almost every day, more patients turn up at the hospital gates than can be treated. Depending on the availability of doctors and nurses, the capacity limit of the Mission Hospital is between 150 and 200 patients a day. Every system has its weaknesses, but in recent years our practice has proven to be useful. /KDJ
