Since the outbreak of the pandemic, the City Council of Churriana de la Vega has strengthened social services, including comprehensive care for elderly and dependent persons, who are more vulnerable in this crisis. The Social Services area is located in the Municipal Center of Culture and monitors the cases most affected by covid-19. This has had an especially negative impact on those who live alone and need daily company.
The City Council provided daily catering services to elderly people with mobility issues or those who didn’t have relatives nearby to help them make purchases and get their basic needs met during the confinement phase. More than 200 dependent elderly people and others use the home assistance service in Churriana. Individualized attention is given to users with hearing or vision impairments using tools like music therapy and clay modeling.
These activities can be done at home to combat anxiety and isolation. They also help seniors feel more confident and well-being. This training has been provided to home help assistants. The City Council of Churriana also offers psychological care in the homes of the aged since March. This work of accompaniment provides the care and love that they require most at this time.
The City Council is currently developing social policies to promote human relationships and bring people closer together. Luis Rodriguez concludes, “I believe this difficult experience has brought out the best in me and has taught me that we can only progress if we do so together, with a special focus on those who most need us, the people who have provided everything.” Call 958469700 to get all information, questions or suggestions about Social Services.
