Healthcare coordination and vaccination in Sassari

Overview

The Asl di Sassari has initiated new strategies to improve public health services, specifically through a congress in Alghero focused on ‘Good vaccination practices and synergistic networks’. Director General Antonio Lorenzo Spano indicated a shift toward combating vaccine hesitancy by training specialists and involving schools to increase immunization uptake.

However, concerns have emerged regarding the coordination of hospital care between the ASL and the AOU of Sassari. Christian Mulas, president of the Health Commission, highlighted risks to patient safety, noting a lack of formal agreements for infectious disease consultations. This issue was underscored by a case where a patient transferred for rehabilitation developed a serious bacterial infection, requiring emergency intervention due to insufficient coordination between facilities.
