The intervention has transformed the Health Center into a modern facility, with the renovation of installations and equipment, creating conditions of accessibility, quality, comfort, and safety for users and professionals. The work, managed by the Municipality, had a global cost exceeding 2 million euros.
The Minister of Economy and Territorial Cohesion, Manuel Castro Almeida, will preside over the inauguration ceremony. The Mayor of Celorico de Basto, José Peixoto Lima, assures that these interventions contribute to retaining professionals and attracting new services.
The mayor also highlighted the intention to proceed with a 2nd phase of the Rehabilitation Unit, which will have 40 beds and adequate spaces for various therapies, including a modern physiotherapy area. The total planned investment for the comprehensive rehabilitation of the Health Center and the municipality's medical posts amounts to 8 million euros.
Several services operate in the renovated space, including the Bástulos Family Health Unit, UCC Mãos Amigas, Public Health, and ECCI (Integrated Continuing Care Team).
