in this project We deal with elderly or dependent people with physical or cognitive impairment and also to the relatives who take care of them, as they know that a person will go home every day and as they deliver the food, they keep company and can detect problems or needs of the person being served. On numerous occasions, the only visit seniors receive during the day is from the food service delivery boy.
Our goal is to improve the quality of daily life of the participants because:
- Maintain correct eating habits to his state of health, providing him with a balanced diet prescribed by a doctor, also suitable for any pathologies.
- Avoid the risks of domestic accidents, not having to carry out the activities necessary for the preparation of meals (lighting the fire, loading the purchase…). We cannot forget the circumstances of physical and mental deterioration, addiction… typical of age.
- have accompaniment and personal accompaniment; especially for people who do not have socio-family networks.
With daily meal preparation and home delivery from Monday to Sunday, they are covered 365 days a year. At Cáritas Diocesana de Cuenca we have an industrial kitchen approved by the Ministry of Health and the City of Cuenca for the preparation of menus and their subsequent home delivery. Furthermore, we have 3 isothermal vehicles for the transport of food products.
