Violence Against Health Professionals Rises In Portugal

TSF Notícias Lisbon 14d11d Impact 5

Portuguese pharmacies have launched new screening services for HIV and hepatitis. Medical professionals view the measure as positive but have requested better data coordination to prevent repetitive processes in prolonged cases. A proposal to refound the National Institute of Medical Emergency (INEM) has been presented to Health Minister Ana Paula Martins. Data shows that 16% of INEM flights were conducted during nighttime hours between October and March. These nighttime flights served as medical alternatives and resuscitation efforts. Data from the Ministry of Health shared services indicates that the number of self-declarations has been increasing since the measure was implemented three years ago. Winter months typically see a higher volume of these requests.

Data from the Ministry of Health shared services indicates that the number of self-declarations has been increasing since the measure was implemented three years ago. Winter months typically see a higher volume of these requests. The SNS24 digital health service has issued nearly 1.5 million self-declarations of illness during its first three years of operation. This averages to approximately 1,350 self-declarations per day. Digital channels, including the SNS24 app, were the preferred means for these declarations. The executive direction of the SNS and the high health direction reported over 3,200 episodes of violence against healthcare professionals in a single year. The report noted that this upward trend has been ongoing since 2020.
