Castro Verde Basic Emergency Service to close this Saturday due to difficulties in scheduling medical staff

Rádio Campanário12 September 2026 at 13:41

The Basic Emergency Service (SUB) in Castro Verde will be closed on Saturday, September 12, 2026, between 08:00 and 20:00, due to difficulties in scheduling medical staff. The information was released by the Baixo Alentejo Local Health Unit (ULSBA) as part of the organization of care response.

During the closure period, users are advised not to go to the SUB in Castro Verde. For appropriate guidance based on symptoms and the degree of severity, they should contact the SNS 24 hotline at number 808 24 24 24.

In emergency situations, users should contact emergency number 112 so that the appropriate emergency response can be activated.

ULSBA reported that the remaining Emergency and Urgency network in Baixo Alentejo is functioning without constraints, with the remaining services available to meet the population's needs.

Why this matters

Residents of Castro Verde and surrounding areas face the temporary absence of their basic emergency service for an entire day, forcing them to travel to other points in the network or use triage hotlines. The situation highlights persistent difficulties in managing medical human resources in the Baixo Alentejo region, which has already generated similar closures at other times.
