ULSS 1 Dolomiti serves the Belluno province , including Belluno, Feltre, Cortina d’Ampezzo, the Cadore, and the Agordino. The composite score is 48/100, just below the national median. The data is best understood in context: 1-year stroke survival rates are among the national top decile, while 30-day STEMI survival is the lowest in Italy. Stroke patients who access hospital care tend to recover well in Veneto’s rehabilitation network; however, acute STEMI cases face challenges due to long mountain drives to catheter labs. Residents with cardiovascular risks should prepare for potential transfers to Treviso or Padova for urgent cardiac care, while stroke recovery and chronic management are effectively handled locally.
