ASP hosts elderly people and adults (including mothers with children in difficulty), residing in the district of the Municipality of Parma, who are offered a set of services that guarantee complete and continuous assistance: personal care, assistance in life activities and maintenance of autonomy, health care, rehabilitation activities, hotel service and entertainment and socialization activities, both through accredited and non-accredited services. For all these types, a homogeneous intervention model operates, in which the word “well-being” encompasses the socio-welfare and health aspects of treatment, but also the psychological and emotional-emotional ones.
