The Workers' Commission of the National Institute of Medical Emergency (Instituto Nacional de Emergência Médica or INEM) has denounced technical failures in the new OnCall computer system used by Urgent Patient Guidance Centres (Centros de Orientação de Doentes Urgentes or CODU). Staff warn that these glitches pose risks to the dispatching of emergency resources and have demanded immediate clarifications from the institute's board of directors. Additionally, the Ministry of Health is currently transitioning INEM toward a new training model that requires internationally recognized certifications for emergency professionals.
Update: Authorities correct exam grading errors following export failure
Education authorities, including the Institute of Education, Quality and Evaluation (Instituto de Educação, Qualidade e Avaliação or EduQA), admitted that a file export error caused incorrect secondary school exam grades to be posted on Friday. Schools received corrected files over the weekend, and officials confirmed that the 'suspended' status previously assigned to some students has been removed.
