Most of them, 14,709, were related to cases of illness, while the rest, which reached 2,838, were classified as accidents, both traffic, domestic and work, as well as other types of accidents, which increased by 13.66%.
In addition, last year the staff of the SUC assisted a total of 16,927 people who required some type of out-of-hospital health care and/or transfer to a health care center, which represents almost 5% of the total population served by this service in the Canary Islands.

Another 1,905 were resolved by the health coordinators of the SUC, medical and nursing professionals, through the telecare provided to resolve their request for help, without the need for the intervention of mobile resources.
