AREA OF SOCIAL SERVICES, HEALTH AND THE THIRD AGE

Hello, we would like to thank you first for standing in this virtual space of the Municipal Social Welfare area, an instrument that we hope will solve some of your doubts in relation to our department.

In this page we try to dump the maximum information that allows the current development of the municipal virtual system, something that little by little we hope will improve until this website becomes the reference for the management of municipal resources for welfare policies, presided by the concept of proximity and quality as our whole welfare policy.

We are aware that much of our work requires personal contact, direct consultation between the people who use the services and the professionals who provide them, so that no in-person system can substitute this human contact. But there is a lot of information that we put at your disposal through this website to facilitate things as much as possible.

Without further ado, I send you a cordial greeting.

Tino Cordal.

Councilor of Social Services, Health and Senior Citizens of the City of Cambados.
