Entre Ríos provincial ambulance fleet management

Overview

In Entre Ríos, legislative oversight and provincial government actions have focused on the management and renewal of the regional ambulance fleet.

Following an accident involving a provincial Ministry of Health ambulance on October 11, 2025, Silvio Gallay, president of the Health Commission of the Chamber of Deputies, requested a formal report. Gallay sought transparency regarding the vehicle’s use, administrative authorizations, and the personnel involved, noting that such accidents reduce the capacity of local health services by removing essential transport units from operation.

In response to the need for reliable medical transport, the Entre Ríos government has begun distributing new Citroën Jumpy ambulances to hospitals along the Uruguay River coast, including facilities in Gualeguaychú, Concepción del Uruguay, and Larroque. These units, which include cardio-defibrillators, are intended to replace older vehicles that are over 10 years old. The distribution was made possible by a donation of 24 transport units from the Argentine Delegation to the Salto Grande Joint Technical Commission.
