Due to revitalization works, urgent and emergency cases arriving by ambulance at UPA São José in Campinas will be redirected to other units on Thursday, October 12.
In Campinas, São Paulo, urgent and emergency services at UPA São José will be impacted by revitalization works scheduled for Thursday, October 12. The authorities are redirecting ambulance cases to other healthcare units, despite non-ambulance emergency services continuing as usual. The decision aims to ensure patient care amidst ongoing construction.
The intervention involves blocking the entrance to the emergency room while metal beams are lifted for the revitalization project. This construction measure is expected to be completed by 6 PM, after which normal operations should resume, including the re-opening of ambulance access. The health department has assured that other emergency services will not be affected, allowing for adequate care to continue.
This redirection of emergency cases highlights the ongoing development and improvement of healthcare facilities in Campinas, reflecting a commitment to enhancing medical services in the region. However, such adjustments also pose challenges for patient transport and access during construction, necessitating clear communication and planning from health officials to minimize disruption to emergency care.
