The future reopening of the emergency room of the Ceva hospital has sparked a heated discussion among local politicians in the town. The mayor, Vicenzo Bezzone, recently brought up the issue to regional councilor Luigi Genesio Icardi, prompting a response from the opposition group “A turning point for Ceva.”
The group criticized the mayor for his renewed focus on the hospital issue as the upcoming municipal elections approach. They suggested that political mandates should be shortened to maintain dynamism in politics and prevent last-minute campaign promises. Despite this critique, the group acknowledged the importance of keeping the spotlight on the hospital and ensuring it remains a priority on the political agenda.
The opposition group emphasized their past efforts in fighting against the closure of the hospital during the pandemic and called for a definitive date for the reopening of the 24-hour emergency room. They urged both the mayor and the regional councilor to work together to address the healthcare needs of the community.
As the regional elections draw near, the group is determined to hold local officials accountable for their promises regarding the hospital. While they appreciate the efforts made so far, they are pushing for concrete action before the elections in June. It remains to be seen how the mayor and councilor will respond to these demands and whether the emergency room will reopen as requested.
