The suspension of treatments at the Thermal Hospital, which began on August 20, has triggered a political crisis in the municipal chamber of Caldas da Rainha. The Social Democratic Party (PSD) has expressed its concern and demands clarification regarding the reasons for this interruption.

The PSD questions what went wrong during the works carried out at borehole AC2, which started on August 5. These works were intended to improve the hospital's services, but their suspension has raised various concerns among the population and the political class.

Dissatisfaction over the closure of the Thermal Hospital is significant, especially considering the importance of this service in the region. The opposition is pressuring the council to provide detailed information and clarify the impact of this situation.

Local authorities have yet to publicly comment on the technical or logistical constraints that may have led to the suspension of treatments, although the situation has generated various criticisms and concerns among residents.
