Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico Puerto Vallarta is significantly improving its commitment to public health and safety with the approval of a pre-hospital medical care module at the Agustín Flores Contreras Sports Unit, also known as the Municipal Stadium.
This important addition, sanctioned during Tuesday’s regular City Council session, is specifically designed to protect the many citizens who participate in sports and recreational activities at this popular public venue, ensuring their immediate well-being.
The module is set to provide immediate and crucial assistance during medical emergencies. Councilwoman Erika Yesenia García Rubio, the driving force behind this resolution, highlighted its importance, emphasizing that swift action can be a decisive factor in saving lives or mitigating severe complications. Its primary function will be to offer rapid stabilization for patients until full emergency services can arrive and take over.
Beyond its emergency response role, the new module will also serve a vital preventive function. It will offer valuable guidance to the public on essential health and safety topics. Visitors will receive information on proper hydration practices, effective warm-up techniques, and the safe and correct use of sports equipment. This proactive approach aims to reduce the likelihood of incidents and promote healthier routines among facility users.
The Agustín Flores Contreras Sports Unit is a central hub for athletics and community gathering in Puerto Vallarta. The spacious, well-maintained facility regularly hosts a wide array of activities, from races on the track to games of soccer, baseball, softball, and basketball. It also features a skate park and accommodates karate training sessions, alongside frequent friendly, amateur, and even semi-professional matches.
The stadium is open to the general public for both structured events and regular activities like exercising, jogging, power-walking, or casually strolling, making the addition of on-site medical care a substantial enhancement for the entire community.
The implementation of this module is a positive step forward in improving the municipal healthcare infrastructure and ensuring immediate medical attention is available at a key public sports venue.
