Participated in the Mobile Emergency and Social Care Service of the City Council, Local Police, Civil Protection, Jesus Abandoned, RAIS and ASEMUR.
Of the 67 services provided, 17 were accommodation in pensions, NGO resources and the Pavilion Cagigal, which tonight will also remain open.
The device launched by the City Council, with the collaboration of NGOs, on the occasion of the cold wave, last night attended 56 homeless people, who were provided with a total of 67 services, either outside accommodation, hot drinks , Food, sleeping bags or blankets.
Both figures do not correspond since a single citizen could require more than one benefit.
The special social care device for people in emergency situations, activated in the wake of the cold wave, keeps the City Emergency, Mobile and Social Protection Emergency Service (SEMAS) staff on alert, who work in a Coordinated with Jesus Abandoned-Solidarity for Development, RAIS Foundation, who provide concerted emergency accommodation, as well as the Association of Rescue and Emergencies of Murcia (ASEMUR).
Of the 61 services provided on this first night, 22 were managed by Jesús Abandonado, 17 by ASEMUR, 15 by SEMAS and 7 by Local Police.
The help that was provided to 17 people was their accommodation to spend the night indoors.
In these cases, 5 were transferred to pensions, 3 to Jesus Abandoned, 3 to the Cagigal Pavilion and 2 to a RAIS Foundation home.
Tonight the same device is maintained, including the opening of the sports facility, enabled with cushions and pillows, and will remain active until temperatures recover.
From that moment on SEMAS will continue its work, in charge of attending homeless people who are in extreme situations, trying to promote their social integration.
