The number of emergencies increased significantly from 2009 to 2019. However, it has been shown that use of emergency rooms has been steadily declining since 2016. What is particularly exciting is the fact that the shortage of skilled workers in the healthcare system is considered to be responsible for the overload of emergency rooms, while the actual number of patients is not necessarily increasing ZI notes.
Overall, it shows that the Meißen district is well positioned to provide medical help even in critical moments. The existing emergency structures are indispensable support for everyone who needs quick and professional help. So when it comes to health, the people of Meißen are in the best hands.
