This past December, once again, the Cudeca Foundation received the support of the Mijas Town Council. This collaboration was formalised through the Agreement regulating the exceptional grant for the project: Home Palliative Care for patients in the municipality of Mijas in 2024.
This grant contributes to sustaining the service provided by CUDECA in the municipality, where 147 patients were cared for during 2024. These patients have an average age of 70, and in 92% {87795d8f23d3e0a0722e067363b4527e04ebe4678ca4b325afd3b2741fc7d431} of cases, present oncological illnesses.
The objectives of the Home Care service focus on improving quality of life, relieving suffering, and promoting autonomy for individuals with advanced illnesses who are facing the end-of-life stage. It promotes care that ensures dignity and peace during the dying process, keeping patients in their own homes, provided this is their wish and their situation allows it.
On behalf of the entire Cudeca Foundation team, we would like to express our gratitude once again to the Mijas Town Council.
