Marbella undertakes improvement works at the Day Center for Alzheimer's patients

The City Council of Marbella has begun an intervention at the Centro de Día Nieves Barranco, located on José Manuel Valles street and specialized in the care of people with neurodegenerative diseases, especially Alzheimer's, in order to enhance security and increase the comfort of users, as reported this Wednesday by the councilor for Works, Diego López.

This was announced by the municipal officer through a press release after his visit today to the facilities, which are managed by the Association of Relatives of People with Alzheimer's and other Neurodegenerative Disorders (AFA), where he noted that the municipal action seeks to make the day-to-day experience of patients and their families more pleasant, providing an environment suited to their needs.

According to the councilor for Works, the improvement works at the care center include the replacement of the current roof, modernization of lighting through the installation of LED screens, and the adaptation of the air conditioning system.

“These improvements will optimize the stay of the patients and advance in energy efficiency, also reducing the maintenance needs of the building,” pointed out the councilor, who highlighted the work carried out by this center.

In this way, he detailed that the Centro de Día Nieves Barranco specializes in the care of people with neurodegenerative diseases, especially Alzheimer's, where patients receive comprehensive, specialized, and therapeutic care, in addition to facilitating the reconciliation of caregiving families by offering them daily respite time.

Finally, he emphasized the importance of ensuring that “spaces such as health care areas, social work, physiotherapy, occupational workshops, dining room, or library meet the highest standards of comfort and functionality, thereby guaranteeing a quality service in line with the needs of its users.”
