The presence of the Minister of Health and State Ministers in the region, “running from one side to the other during a day of very short trips to the municipalities and health units, did not produce anything that answered the many problems that exist in this area and all of whom have known for a long time, including the government and the council Republic,” PCP asserts.
The Directorate of the Organization of Beja (DORBE) of the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP), in the press release sent to Voz da Planície, notes that “the travel of the Minister of Health has left us with the same or even more concerns due to the failure to make a single concrete proposal for the many cases of our suffering and the grave reality that It dragged on for many years.”
“By the way, it is really strange that the Minister of Health, who revealed that he would know some of our facts, was almost accepting approval of the many criticisms he was the target of, for example saying ‘I also want the hospital in Serpa’, that the Saúde de Moura Center does not actually fulfill With the conditions for providing services and that the hospital in Beja needs intervention. The government cannot continue to ignore our region and our serious problems and not take a concrete decision, once again, to abandon our population. Propaganda or demagoguery and “selling” illusions, once again, about the health and life of our communities. Deserves all the effort “.
As for the work of the second phase of the Jose Joaquim Fernandez Hospital in Beja, which is considered very urgent and even after the approval of a decision in the Assembly of the Republic, one wonders when the decision will be taken? With regard to the transfer of the Hospital de Serpa to the National Health Service (SNS) given that agreements and contracts have not been fulfilled and the population has been harmed with the confirmation of unfortunate cases, is there any expectation of this possibility? When one party does not comply with an agreement, for unknown reasons, shouldn’t this be reversed? If the apparent lack of conditions at Mora Health Center is a reality, why not run the operations, design and financing for rehabilitation/construction? And what measures are needed to eliminate the chronic shortage of doctors, nurses and other health professionals, knowing, of course, all the difficulties inherent in the so-called inner region universe? They are “unanswered facts of the region”.
PCP DORBE’s press release ends by stressing that this party “will not give up the struggle and will appeal to all who share these concerns to do so in defense of their just and legitimate interests.”
