Madrid Allocates €2.6 Million to Care for 92 People at Villaverde Alzheimer Centre
The Community of Madrid announced on November 1 that its Governing Council has authorised €2.6 million for the comprehensive care of users of the Villaverde Alzheimer Centre throughout 2027, from January 1 to December 31.
The centre cares for 92 dependent people, with 52 residential places and 40 day places, and offers a respite service for users' families. Run by the regional ministry for Family, Youth and Social Affairs, it provides rehabilitation, gerontological, psychological and social care, along with transport.
The Villaverde centre is one of only three public specialised Alzheimer facilities in the Madrid region, alongside the Residencia Getafe Alzheimer and the Centro Alzheimer Fundación Reina Sofía, caring for patients at different stages of the disease.
The regional government said the funding will guarantee the centre's operation through 2027 and support both patients and their family carers.
