The president of the Portuguese Medical Union Association, Jorge Pimenta, argues that hospitals should not be places where health professionals are targets of aggression. His position is clear: zero tolerance is needed towards any form of violence directed at workers in the health sector.
Jorge Pimenta has been asserting the need to strengthen violence prevention in the health sector. This defense comes in the context of growing concerns about the safety of medical professionals and nurses in the exercise of their duties.
The union leader's position reinforces an alert that has been raised by various sector organizations about the importance of creating safe working environments for those working in health services.
