Summary
The meeting between the three entities is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. at the Ministry of Health, with union president Rui Lázaro, to admit to Lusa that the stoppage scheduled for September 14th and 28th may be dismissed if his claims are accepted by the Government. On August 13, STEPH announced two days of strike at the National Institute of Medical Emergency (INEM) against measures to reorganize means that have been taken by the board of directors chaired by Luís Cabral, in a process that has led to extreme positions between the two parties in recent weeks. In concrete terms, the union wants the INEM to give up transforming immediate life support ambulances into light vehicles, claiming that this removes patient transport capacity, and to extend the emergency ambulance network by the end of 2027, among other demands.
Furthermore, When the strike was announced, Health Minister Ana Paula Martins was surprised at the protest's appointment, but said she hoped the union would rethink her position. At that time, in an interview with RTP Antena 1, Luís Cabral admitted that the union had "hidden party intentions" in this process, with Rui Lázaro responding with the announcement of a criminal complaint against the president of the institute.
