"The summer health centers will offer uninterrupted service across the coastline and in mountainous areas until mid-September.

"In addition to summer health centers, 17 ambulances have been designated to key points along the entire coast and the most popular tourist areas, from Valbona in the north to Saranda in the south," Manastirliu said.

Moreover, hospitals across Albania, especially those close to the tourist areas, are also ready for the influx of summer tourists.
