Health Minister acknowledges the shortage of nurses

Portugal's Health Minister acknowledges the existence of a shortage of nurses in the health system, but according to the publication, she does not take measures to resolve this situation. The article indicates that this issue was addressed in June, suggesting that the criticism of government inaction refers to a specific period of discussion about the precariousness of human resources in health. The source of this news is the Portuguese Nurses' Union (SEP), which indicates that this trade union organization is expressing opposition to the Ministry of Health's position. The publication suggests a discrepancy between the public acknowledgment of the problem and the absence of concrete actions by the ministry to address the shortage of nurses in the country.
