Special career path for dentists in the NHS published
A new law establishing a special career path for dentists within the National Health Service (Serviço Nacional de Saúde or SNS) was published this Tuesday. The measure, which takes effect with the next State Budget, aims to increase the number of dentists working in the public sector to address current shortages.
ULS Alto Ave is the Alto Ave Local Health Unit (Unidade Local de Saúde do Alto Ave), a public body that runs hospitals and some primary-care services for the Ave area in northern Portugal. It is part of the National Health Service (Serviço Nacional de Saúde or SNS), and recent staff strikes have affected overtime and complementary work, so residents should check local hospital notices before visiting.
