Salut sets minimum services for next week's doctors' strike
Hospitals will maintain emergency care and health centers will have one doctor and one pediatrician per shift, while resident physicians will not perform minimum services.
PalmThe Balearic Islands Health Service (Ib-Salut) has established minimum services for the statewide strike of medical and medical staff of the A1 group of the National Health System, called from Monday 16 to Friday 20 February, as a protest against the framework statute.
In hospitals, minimum services will be those established for public holidays, with one additional specialist in the morning in specialties with inpatients and in central services that attend to hospitalized patients. In services without regular on-call duty, the presence of a physician will be guaranteed in the morning. Critical and urgent services such as oncology, hematology, oncological surgery, emergency medicine, dialysis, and hospital pharmacy will maintain 100% coverage. In Primary Care, each center will have one doctor and one pediatrician in the morning and afternoon. In centers with more than 20,500 health cards, there will be two professionals in each specialty. Continuity of Care (PAC) and Emergency (SUAP and 061) services will operate at 100%. Resident physicians will not perform minimum services.
