The Health Department of the Orihuela City Council has completed a full upgrade of the air conditioning system at the San Bartolomé medical clinic. This initiative reflects the local government’s commitment to ensuring that healthcare facilities are comfortable, functional, and suited to the needs of both patients and medical staff—especially with the arrival of the summer heat.
Councillor for Health, Irene Celdrán, emphasized that “this improvement responds to a long-standing request from local residents and addresses a real need for both patients and healthcare professionals who work in these clinics every day.”
In addition to this upgrade, the Health Department is also conducting preventive maintenance work across the municipality’s other medical centers. These efforts aim to inspect and ensure the proper functioning of climate control systems and overall facility infrastructure ahead of the summer season.
Celdrán explained that “these actions are part of a broader, ongoing improvement plan for the local network of health centers, prioritizing the well-being of residents and the quality of the medical spaces where care is provided.”
She added, “From the Orihuela City Council, we will continue to invest in and improve public services, taking care of our health centers—because the health and comfort of our residents is a top priority.”
