Castelldefels’ new Muntanyeta primary care centre will open on Tuesday 10th November at Avinguda Lluís Companys, 18, with all of the town’s paediatric professionals working there as a single team. The centre will also add 26 professionals and a part-time dentist to local healthcare services.
For parents, the opening means children’s healthcare will be brought together at the new building. But adult mental health and outpatient rehabilitation appointments cannot begin there on Tuesday, Castelldefels City Council says, and affected patients have been informed.
Opening hours and primary care services
The centre, known locally as CAP Castelldefels Muntanyeta, will open from 8am to 8pm, Monday to Friday. It will be the municipality’s third primary care centre, following Can Bou and El Castell.
Its new primary care team will be managed by Consorci Castelldefels Agents de Salut (CASAP), a public health consortium jointly owned by the Institut Català de la Salut, the Catalan public health provider, and Castelldefels City Council. CASAP also manages the Can Bou centre.
The new staff are to include:
- Eight primary care doctors and eight nursing professionals.
- One paediatrician and eight healthcare administrative professionals.
- One social worker and one part-time dentist.
The council also plans to add a primary care physiotherapist, a nutritionist and a community emotional wellbeing team during the first quarter of 2027. The wellbeing team is planned to work 20 hours a week.
Services at Muntanyeta will include family and community medicine, nursing, health-related social work, patient services, dentistry and dental hygiene. Community emotional wellbeing, physiotherapy, dietetics and nutrition are also part of the planned offer.
Diagnostic equipment includes eight ultrasound machines, an electrocardiogram connected to the electronic health record system, and skin examination devices with cameras. The centre will also have equipment for allergy tests and PCR tests using capillary blood samples.
Two services delayed at the new building
The adult mental health centre, managed by Parc Sanitari Sant Joan de Déu, cannot start appointments at Muntanyeta on 10th November because of a problem with the telephone operator, the council says. A new start date will depend on that problem being resolved.
The Catalan public health provider’s outpatient rehabilitation service will also miss the opening day because some of its required materials and equipment have not yet arrived. The council says affected patients have been informed and work is under way to obtain the outstanding resources.
The building will also house the child and adolescent mental health centre, managed by Fundació Orienta. Diari de Catalunya reported that a dedicated patient support service has been established at El Castell and Can Bou and will also be available at Muntanyeta from opening day. CASAP has published information for patients about the new centre.
Investment and public open day
The 3,780-square-metre building cost €10.86 million to construct and equip, according to the council. It stands on land donated by the city council and has courtyards designed to make use of natural light and ventilation, alongside measures intended to reduce energy consumption.
More than 500 people attended an open day organised by CASAP on Friday 6th November. Visitors toured the building in groups before the centre begins operating.
