A therapeutic space has been completed and is fully equipped, but remains closed because it has no assigned staff. The unit is ready to operate, but is awaiting the designation of employees before it can begin its activity.
The authorities responsible for managing this facility acknowledge the situation and indicate that the lack of human resources has prevented the unit from opening. The space was built and fitted with the necessary equipment to receive patients.
It was also clarified that this therapeutic unit will not have the capacity to respond to serious mental health cases. Its operation will be limited to other types of follow-up and treatment, which raises questions about the scope of services that may be provided.
The situation leaves a facility unused for an indefinite period on the ground, while patients and professionals await a solution to the staffing shortage that is blocking the facility from becoming operational.
