The objective is to improve patients’ personal resources, their quality of life, sign them up for treatment and decrease hospital admissions. There is a PSI in the district of Sant Martí and another in Santa Coloma de Gramenet - Badalona.

Care and Supervision Centre (CSC)

These care and supervision centres offer outpatient treatment specialising in drug dependencies. CSCs are comprised of teams of professionals from different disciplines (doctors, psychologists, social workers, nurses, etc.), who design the most appropriate treatment type in accordance with each individual case needing these services, as well as the convenience of employing other resources, such as therapeutic communities and detoxification hospital units. CSCs can offer different treatment types: drug-free treatments, methadone maintenance programmes, antagonist maintenance programmes, etc. There is one in Barceloneta and another in La Mina.

Community rehabilitation services and day hospitals

Community rehabilitation services

The Cognitive Illnesses Day Hospital is a social-public health day service for patients affected by cognitive deterioration and/or dementia who may benefit from a Complete Psychostimulant Programme.

There is individual treatment adapted to the patient and the development of the disease, evaluation and treatment of the psychopathology associated with dementia (behavioural problems), prevention of risk situations and complications associated with cognitive deterioration (nutritional alterations, falls...) and consultation, education and emotional support for the primary caregiver. The Santa Coloma de Gramenet Day Centre can accommodate up to 25 patients.
