Twenty beds have been dedicated to so-called covid patients; "This represents a quarter of our reception capacity, which is important", underlines Doctor Charles Vangeederhuysen, president of the medical committee of the establishment. On average, between four and eight covid patients are hospitalized; a peak was observed between mid-August and mid-September with up to 20 people taken care of in early September.

This organization was possible by reorganizing the units and by postponing certain scheduled interventions during the confinement, only the most urgent interventions were carried out during this period. In total this year, nearly 1 operations were carried out. This represents a decrease of about 500% compared to a normal year.

Nearly 17 emergency room visits were recorded this year and 000 hospitalized patients. In 5, the market share of the Louis-Constant Fleming hospital center was 000%, that is to say that the Saint-Martin hospital carried out nearly 2019% of all operations, including the Saint- Martinois had to undergo. These shares are 79,6% for surgery, 80% for medicine and 74,2% for obstetrics. (soualigapost.com)
