Care for the Elderly Guaranteed in Ciego de Avila
Monday, July 25, 2016

Havana.- The health system in Ciego de Avila applies mechanisms to ensure care for elderly people, taking into account the aging population on the island.

In that direction works the remodeling of eight nursing homes and 14 houses of grandparents from 2014 to date, with about four million Cuban pesos invested.

The engagements included roofs, doors, windows, bathrooms, kitchens, dining rooms and bedrooms, plus the elimination of architectural barriers in the aforementioned units.

The territory has the technical and human resources for gerontological care, dental and visual and auditory rehabilitation of older adults.

It is noteworthy that the province has about 75,000 men and women who are 60 years or older, while the fertility rate is only 1.6 percent.
