Functional Diversity Care Plan
In 2022, the Dénia Health Department implemented a Ambitious Care Plan for Severe Functional Diversity with the aim of improving the experience of these patients.
Among its goals is the reduction of waiting time from the patient's arrival at the center until the moment of the visit with the health personnel, facilitating the accompaniment of the patient by the main caregiver, whenever the clinical situation allows it, and overcoming communication barriers.
To carry out this plan, various facilitating elements were acquired for patients with visual, auditory, motor and cognitive functional diversity, such as a sound amplification system available at the main counters of the health center and a video-interpretation system that translates the deaf language.
In addition, the hospital center has hrooms adapted for patients with morbid obesity, adapted changing tables, elevators with buttons in Braille, reserved parking spaces near the main entrances, tables in the cafeteria adapted for wheelchair users and the option of checking in from your mobile phone with the Virtual Counter APP MS.
