INTERVIU. 150 de copii au murit în 6 ani așteptând un pat la „Marie Curie”. Dr. Cîrstoveanu: „Lista rușinii pentru cei care se simt”

In Romania, 150 children have died waiting for intensive care beds at Marie Curie Hospital over the past six years. Dr. Catalin Cirstoveanu highlighted the emotional toll on parents and medical staff, emphasizing the urgent need for more resources and personnel in neonatal care. He expressed hope that the government will recognize the gravity of the situation, which cannot be measured solely in numbers. The hospital currently faces a shortage of nurses, impacting the quality of care for critically ill infants. Cirstoveanu lamented the challenges of recruiting and retaining qualified staff due to low salaries and high demands.
