The Ministry of Health of the Regional Government and the City of Alcantarilla agreed, in June of 2017, the start of the procedures for the expansion and comprehensive reform of the Health Center "Sewer-Sangonera", located in the neighborhood of Vistabella.
The City of Alcantarilla will give a plot of 264 square meters in which the Ministry of Health plans to build two or three floors, which would mean a total amount of around 700 square meters, which will house, provisionally although subject to last minute changes, pediatric and gynecology services, as well as housing spaces for the center's staff.
To do this, the City of Alcantarilla launched the transfer procedure for which it has been necessary to develop a detailed study that the government team takes to the Plenary of March for approval, thus allowing Sewer to count on a health center more spacious, modern and with more and better services according to the present and future healthcare needs of the residents of Sewer.
The Health Center "Alcantarilla-Sangonera" is the first of the two centers that the municipality has and was built in 1985. The progressive increase in population made the creation (year 2000) of the "Alcantarilla-Casco" necessary, in the neighborhood of San Pedro, which allowed for the remodeling and expansion of the first and the transfer of the Primary Care Emergency Service (SUAP) to the building of the "Alcantarilla-Casco", thus freeing up the necessary space to create a new and resized Pediatrics in the "Alcantarilla-Sangonera" building.
Subsequently, new queries have been created with the reordering of spaces.
