Hospital Maternidade Almeida Castro is recognized for its commitment to providing high-quality maternal and neonatal care. It has undergone significant improvements following a judicial intervention in 2014, which led to the restructuring of its services and facilities. The hospital now operates with a focus on patient safety, staff training, and adherence to health regulations. In 2023, the hospital achieved a 90% occupancy rate in its neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), reflecting its capacity to handle complex cases.
