PS Proposes Resignation of Health Minister and GNR Soldier Dies Alone in Castelo de Vide, Without Aid From VMER
News Article: Human Error in SNS 24 Triage Leads to Street Birth
A human error in the triage process of SNS 24, Portugal's emergency health service, has resulted in a street birth, according to the Shared Services of the Ministry of Health. The error occurred due to the incorrect application of the triage algorithm by a human operator, as reported by Público.
The woman who gave birth on the street is scheduled to be discharged today. However, it's important to note that the Ministry of Health is not directly responsible for this human error. The responsibility lies with the private operator that manages SNS 24.
Meanwhile, there has been no information provided about the connection between the street birth and the recent death of a GNR soldier in Castelo de Vide. It's been confirmed that these two incidents are separate. In the GNR soldier's case, the VMER (Vehicle of Medical Emergency Response) was stopped due to a lack of a doctor.
