Moments of panic were experienced at the Chilca health center when a section of the ceiling gave way and fell directly onto a patient who was waiting her turn in the care area. The affected person, identified as Delicia De La Cruz Guillén (33), said that she was just waiting for her appointment when she suddenly felt the impact on her head. “I was really scared, because I’m still in pain. If it had been a bigger piece, what would have happened to my four children,” she said, still affected.

The other patients ran to help her and alerted the staff. The woman was treated immediately, where the doctors on duty confirmed that she suffered a brain concussion. The incident once again showed the deterioration of the establishment’s infrastructure, a concern that users have been pointing out for years.

According to the workers themselves, just a week ago the tile roof was replaced with a corrugated board, an intervention that would have weakened the interior structure of the ceiling. This condition would have caused the detachment that put at risk the patients who come to the health facility daily. “I ask the authorities to build another center, because this is getting worse,” Delicia demanded while being treated.
