The City Hall and the Loures hospital provide a positive assessment of the regional obstetric emergency that began a month ago at the Beatriz Ângelo hospital. In Alenquer, several complaints of constraints have reached the municipality.
Pregnant women from Benavente, Vila Franca de Xira, Arruda dos Vinhos, Azambuja and Alenquer who need urgent care have had a single alternative: the Hospital de Loures. The first regional emergency department to start operating.
The assessment coincides with that of the mayor of Loures, who says it is still too early to assess. For users of Alenquer, for example, the centralization of emergency services in Loures means a trip of more than 45 kilometers.
And there are already complaints. Opposing balances, but there is a consensus on the regional urgency and that it must be a provisional measure.
The regional emergency at Loures Hospital was the first to begin in the country. THE in Almada.
