The mayor, who was speaking on the sidelines of the opening of the Festa do Leitão, last Thursday, also announced that shortly after this date the emergency service facilities at the Águeda Hospital will be opened, and also renovated.
It should be remembered that the renovation and expansion works of the Agueda Health Centre, which were designed and under the responsibility of the City Council, with a total value of 1.3 million (plus VAT), were divided into three phases in order to adapt the minimum operation of the infrastructure and the provision of health care to the population. .
The investment included expanding the building and creating new areas, in addition to solving some existing problems such as infiltrations and other technical problems.
The 1,235 sqm Agueda Health Center building has now been expanded by 372 sqm and also has a 255 sqm upstairs pavilion, which has been maintained.
This work was supported by community funds within the framework of the Regional Operational Program of Centro 2020.
