Hospital emergency services in Andorra handled six cases linked to Saint John's Eve celebrations, including five adults treated for alcohol intoxications of varying severity and one minor with a hand burn from a firecracker explosion, SAAS reports confirm.
The Servei d'Urgències Mèdiques (SUM) dispatched four basic life support ambulances during the early morning hours. Three units attended to adults experiencing severe alcohol effects, while the fourth responded to the minor injured by a petard. These ambulances provide on-site medical care without a physician on board.
Two additional adults arrived directly at hospital urgències for treatment of alcohol-related intoxications.
SAAS has identified these as the primary medical interventions tied to the festivities. No updates on patient conditions are available, and further details are pending.
