The PSOE requires the Ballestas government to recover the podiatry service removed from the centers of adults a year ago (03/12/2016)

The councilor of the Socialist Municipal Group, Maite Espinosa, has criticized this Saturday again the lack of interest of the Ballesta government in regaining the podiatry service that, until a year ago, was offered in the centers of the municipality.

"In January of this year the PSOE presented a motion urging the PP government team to take the necessary measures to continue this service, which had been withdrawn alleging lack of adequate facilities in the centers of elders, but almost a year later Users of these centers still do not have access to a much needed and demanded service ".

Espinosa recalled that the Council of Social Rights announced in May an agreement with the College of Podiatrists to reduce the queries to those who needed the service, "but did not have the mobility problems of many of them or with the great inconvenience of A transportation inefficient in the municipality. "A twenty percent discount in the podiatry consultation is for the elderly who need it a higher outlay than they did in their own centers and, furthermore, it involves moving if they do not have a Consultation nearby in your neighborhood or hamlet, "said Espinosa.

The council has also denounced that, months after the signing of the agreement "there are no posters that advertise in the centers of the elderly that there is that option. Users do not know that they have a discount if they go to private consultations, so we doubt the Implementation of this agreement on which little or nothing has been reported to those really interested: our elders. "

"If this lack of interest in getting users to the alternative conceived by the Department of Social Rights - insufficient and ineffective - we also find that there has not been a single step to adapt the rooms of the centers of Greater in which this service was offered before, so that the government of Ballesta demonstrates how little it is concerned to recover the service as it was rendering for the good of the elders of the municipality, "added Espinosa.

The mayor of the PSOE has also criticized "the hypocrisy of the PP, that while he does not move a finger to solve the problem from the City of Murcia, has its representatives in the municipal boards presenting motions to claim this service, in order, we imagine, Meet face to the gallery ".

"Our elders deserve more than words and empty promises, rather than motions presented at municipal councils with the sole aim of appearing. They deserve the Ballesta government and Councilwoman Concha Ruiz to get to work as soon as possible in recovering a service that is very important For hundreds of neighbors and neighbors of the municipality. "

For this reason, the Socialist Group will demand that the next Budgets for 2017 contemplate a heading destined to the conditioning of the centers of majors so that the podology service recovers as soon as possible.
