Six employees at the San Leonardo hospital in Castellammare di Stabia received service orders concerning the Pronto Soccorso and OBI, according to Metropolis Web.
CISL FP and Nursing Up describe the orders as unilateral and say they could affect the organisation of the emergency department and OBI. They have requested immediate withdrawal of the orders and an urgent meeting with the medical director and the Pronto Soccorso director.
The unions say they sent an urgent note to the health authority on 4 November and had received no response by the time of the report. They warned they may launch further trade-union and institutional action if the health authority remains silent.
The exact destinations of the six employees and whether all the moves were completed remain unclear. No response from the health authority was identified in the available reporting.
The San Leonardo has been reported as having been reclassified from a “hub” to a “spoke” facility, amid local political criticism and concerns about reduced hospital capacity. The dispute comes amid wider concern in Campania about overcrowded emergency departments, staffing levels and the availability of hospital beds.
