Taciano Lemos Pires

Taciano Lemos Pires is the director of Hospital Calderón Guardia in Costa Rica, who is set to return to his position after an eight-month suspension due to alleged issues with alcohol. His return has sparked significant controversy among the hospital staff, who have expressed concerns over the potential impact on workplace morale and patient care. The workers have voiced their discontent through a letter to the executive president of the Costa Rican Social Security Fund, Mónica Taylor Hernández, highlighting a deteriorating relationship with Lemos in recent years and a preference for the interim leadership of Tania Jiménez Umaña.
