MEJOR ATENCIÓN A LA SALUD

En el año 2007, el Área Médica del Proyecto Minero XXXX, a cargo de la empresa Plan Vital, mejoró las condiciones de atención para los trabajadores del campamento. El número de médicos se elevó a cuatro, de los cuales dos son especialistas en salud ocupacional y en emergencias y desastres. El número de enfermeros aumentó a tres. El equipamiento del Puesto de Salud de Fuerabamba se amplió con la implementación de la sala de shock trauma, de un electrocardiógrafo y un monitor *cardiodefibrilador*. También se incorporaron nuevos instrumentos en la ambulancia. En un futuro cercano se contará con dos ambulancias para cubrir ambos campamentos; una de ellas será del tipo II.
