Viseu: ULS extends home mental health support to three more municipalities

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 16:02

ULS Viseu Dão-Lafões is extending to three more municipalities the activity of the community mental health support team for adults, which already follows 408 users. The team, created as a pilot project in 2021, currently operates in Vouzela, Oliveira de Frades, São Pedro do Sul and Castro Daire, with planned expansion to Vila Nova de Paiva, Sátão and Aguiar da Beira. The goal is to ensure mental health care at home, avoiding unnecessary hospitalizations and promoting users' community integration. This care model allows professionals to intervene directly in the patients' family environment, providing closer and more personalized follow-up.

Why this matters

Readers in the Viseu region directly benefit from this extension, which brings more accessible mental health care to their municipalities, avoiding trips to the hospital. The expansion follows the success of the 2021 pilot project and the existing support of 408 users.

CVRA accuses the State of failing to control imported wine: "In whose name and why?"

The Regional Alentejo Wine Commission (CVRA), led by Luís Sequeira, accused the Portuguese State of not ensuring effective control over bulk imported wine, pointing to an accumulated difference of about 690 million liters over seven years between INE import data and volumes identified by the IVV as introduced for consumption. The responsible party demands that the Government immediately centralize the current accounts of bulk wine operators in the Wine and Vine Information System, applying the same model already successfully used for certified wines. The CVRA is not opposed to imports, but defends that identical rules should exist for all operators and monitoring mechanisms for imported wine, warning that tens of thousands of national wine growers are being harmed by unfair competition, mainly from Spain.

TST determines that Correios workers maintain 80% of staff during strike

The Superior Labor Court partially granted Correios' request and declared the workers' strike abusive, determining that unions maintain 80% of staff active in all units, including service, transportation, distribution, and administrative areas. The decision requires that the percentage be measured individually in each unit, shift, and activity, without compensation between different areas. Correios had filed a lawsuit requesting the declaration of abusiveness and the opening of collective bargaining due to lack of agreement on salary adjustment, whose judgment is scheduled for September 21.
