The statement from Hospital de Reconquista
In the presence of symptoms compatible with dengue disease, from the direction of the Central Hospital of Reconquista, it is recommended that the population consult their family doctor or doctor from the Health Center closest to their home, who will indicate care and alert regarding alarm symptoms to watch out for.
Once the first consultation has been made, the follow-up of the evolution of the disease must be carried out at the patient’s home, complying with the medical indications received.
You should go to the Central Guard only in cases where alarm symptoms appear. This will result in a better organization of care, avoiding saturation and focusing human resources, which are scarce, to attend to emergencies.
This disease can be treated at home as long as there are no complications, in which case you should go to the emergency room at the Central Hospital of Reconquista.
Finally, the Reconquista Hospital Management thanks all the staff for their invaluable dedication, work and willingness.
