The Ministry of Health has extended the radiology service of the Mazarrón Health Center so that it can also offer appointments in the afternoon.

For this, a Radiology technician has been hired, who will provide support to the technician who already has the center.

The Minister of Health, Manuel Villegas, made this announcement during his visit to the Health Center of Mazarrón, together with the mayor of the municipality, Alicia Jiménez.

With these new hires "we give a new impetus to this health center, the only one within the health area of ​​Cartagena that offers radiology service, with the reinforcement of its portfolio of services and we avoid that the inhabitants of the municipality have to travel to Cartagena to perform these tests, "Villegas explained.

During the past year, this service offered a total of 7,436 appointments.

Another measure that the Ministry has implemented in this health center to facilitate accessibility and avoid displacement of the inhabitants of the municipality of Mazarrón have been the development of non-contact consultations through telemedicine in the specialties of dermatology, cardiology , gynecology and Obstetrics.

School attendance

This health center also has two nurses belonging to the School Community Health Care Program (Paces) of the Region of Murcia.

These professionals pay attention to children with chronic ailments in all the schools of the municipality to favor their schooling.

This initiative is carried out through coordination between health and education centers and responds to health needs in the educational field, both with the attention to children with specific needs and the promotion of healthy habits among children.
