Moreover, the Socialist deputy, who has health issues in the Regional Assembly, has announced it will file a request for information about when is the project of the Center for High Resolution of Jumilla and also the Social Democratic Party will present a initiative to begin efforts to establish in Murcia Comprehensive Care Unit for patients with Fibromyalgia.
Carpenter has offered very worrying data on, for example, the existing waiting lists "to June 30, there are 22,000 people on waiting lists, of the 17,000 expected to see a specialist, about 2,500 patients are awaiting a diagnostic test and 1,300 for an operation. "
On these waiting lists, the socialist deputy said that "people should know that there is a regional decree by which a citizen does not have to wait 150 days for an operation, or more than 50 days for me to see a specialist or more than 30 days for a diagnostic test. "
"In this way, the citizen has the right to attend a private school and is funded his attention by the public service," said Carpenter.
The regional deputy believes that "health in the Region of Murcia is insufficient and is in bankruptcy, due to suppliers, pharmacists, private hospitals and a proof of this is the cessation of the redevelopment of the Hospital de Yecla" said, adding that "in the Health Service of Murcia, to December 31, 2008, there is a deficit of more than 400 million euros and this is a product of poor organization of health care in Murcia, never the work of professionals ".
For his part, Mayor of Jumilla has expressed concern about the lack of information on the Integrated Health Center, "is an issue that has dragged on for more than five years and after much work, they ceded the land and was achieved a commitment by all local groups that was sent to the Autonomous Community, which included in its 2009 budget drafting the bill, "said Abellán and added that" to date we know nothing, ask for several weeks a meeting with Counselor and has not yet set a date. "
On this subject, Sunday Carpenter has announced that it will submit a request for information on this center, "since it effectively in the 2009 budget there is an item of 129,102 euros for the project, but do not say that has not been made, we know nothing. "
"The important thing is that this center is built and in the 2010 budget will include money for the work."
Equally, as Carpena Abellán have referred to the recent approval by the Senate on an initiative that will improve care for patients with Fibromyalgia.
In this sense, the socialist deputy has praised the initiative taken by Francisco Abellán, as a senator, and announced that, after such approval, the Social Democratic Party will present an initiative at the Regional Assembly to "begin to working on this issue in Murcia and try to get a Comprehensive Care Unit patients with fibromyalgia. "
According to Domingo Carpena "this unit is needed for patients who demand a form of self-care, I have known patients who have taken three to three and half years to be diagnosed and this must be remedied."
