Pedro Nuno Santos, secretary general of the PS, made several statements this Saturday following a meeting with health experts and acknowledged that the party has “managed to achieve a whole lot compared to OECD countries”, adding that Portugal has “made great strides”. progress in the health of the Portuguese over the past decades.”
“PS is not giving up on SNS. She wants to continue investing so that all Portuguese are treated with quality, regardless of their financial situation,” he said.
The Secretary General recalled that there is something to work on “in terms of investment” and it is necessary to “optimize the state’s resources.” However, he said that the PS “does not reject cooperation with the private sector, but there must be a clear strategy between the public and private sectors” because “health cannot be achieved without people who dedicate themselves every day to Portugal.”
The SNS has problems that the leader of the socialist party wants to answer, but for this “it is necessary to reach agreements with organizations to work on the careers of doctors and nurses,” only then with a recognized community will they “achieve good health care for the population,” the socialist believes.
“We want to focus on governance reforms, investment and career development, there is still a lot to be done,” he added.
He also says that “there are many services that the PS must respond to, but the NHS is the most important.”
