EUSEM Statement on the floods in Spain

EUSEM would like to express its sincere support and compassion to all affected by the recent floods in Spain. We extend to those who have lost a loved one and for those injured, our sincerest sympathy. The survivors are now faced with the enormous challenge of clean up, and while doing so, even possibly exposing themselves to disease. We acknowledge the excellent, dedicated, and altruistic work that the rescue teams, our colleagues in the emergency rooms (doctors, nurses, and assistants) and the Spanish citizens are accomplishing despite very difficult conditions. EUSEM stands ready, alongside the Sociedad Española de Medicina de Urgencias y Emergencias to offer them assistance and support in a way that they would judge as being the most useful and most adapted to their needs. We recognize that this is a grueling and distressing time for the entire country, and our thoughts and prayers are with Spain.
