There are two new ambulances near the hospitals of the southern border of Tejo that do not have an emergency for obstetricians. They will transport gravel for other units that are open. In the new Sintra Hospital it is difficult to fill the premises. 250 people have been hired already, but it is necessary to reach the 500. Therefore, teams are shared with the Fernando Fonseca Hospital. The basic emergency is about 140 episodes per day.
