The Italian Naval Register (RINA), with protocol number vdc/25579, has finally approved the use of ambulances in the garage area of ​​ferries to and from the islands of Naples, without requiring medical personnel and patients to disembark from the vehicle. It seems paradoxical, yet Legislative Decree 28/2001 prohibits the presence of people in the garage area of ​​ferries, meaning that even seriously injured passengers, accompanied by doctors, stretcher bearers, and ambulance drivers, are forced to leave the ambulance once they board the ferry and go upstairs. This paradox has created numerous problems for people in need of medical care, who may be forced to travel from the islands to other facilities in Campania.
Entrepreneur Aldo Presutti rejoices: "I'm happy because a great battle of civility has finally come to fruition, one in which I participated alongside my friend Rosa Iacono, who deserves the honor of victory. Rosa has been fighting this battle for years, and we've finally reached a turning point. Commitment to the local community always pays off in the long run." Rosa Iacono was recently hospitalized for a heart attack, "...my best wishes to her for a speedy and complete recovery, and from all the islanders. A victory for all the islanders." This is what Aldo Presutti, an Ischian entrepreneur with a strong commitment to the Ischian community, said.
