The detections have been made
mainly through the Local Police,
Health Center and the Red Cross,
although there are also cases that
have been notified at a particular
level of citizens and neighbors close
to the users, achieving one of the
main objectives of the program that
is “strengthen co-responsibility
between public administration and
civil society, “explains Councilwoman
Pepa Gisbert.
Gisbert recalls that the philosophy of
this project is to make society aware
of how to act as a radar in front of this
problem: being alert to any change
in routine, behavior or appearance,
which may indicate that someone
needs some kind of help.
Regarding the 78 localized cases,
Social Services has assessed them
individually and incorporated each
one into the most appropriate
programs: from the home help
service, telecare, menjars to home,
Dependency law, financial and
individualized assistance, in addition
to offer socio-educational support,
volunteering and support, follow-
up through the Radars project
itself or help in the management
of documentation for other social
resources.
Throughout this process, the
municipal area has coordinated with
the Health Center and the health
services.
One of the main objectives of this
program for 2019 is to launch all the
services linked to volunteering, such
as the telephone tracking platform.
To do this, they ask people “to have a
sensitive and respectful look towards
older people” who join in and thus
contribute to make life more pleasant
and easier for others.
