Santiago de Cuba health service receives new ambulances

Santiago de Cuba, Aug 15 (Prensa Latina) The Public Health Service of this southeastern province now has six new vehicles for the Comprehensive Medical Emergency System (SIUM).

The brand-new ambulances will help optimize the transport and care of patients requiring urgent life support, as well as the technical positioning system of the units, sources from the entity stated.

The handover took place in the parking lot of Saturnino Lora Provincial Clinical Surgical Teaching Hospital, one of the leading health facilities in the province, where several construction and renovation projects have been carried out in recent years.

The handover comes amidst the intensification of the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States on the Cuban people, which particularly affects the health system.
