Overview
- The Xunta will put the new €9.6 million, roughly 3,500 m² health centre in Sisalde into service on June 15, expanding Moaña’s primary‑care capacity with multiple medical, nursing, paediatric, physiotherapy, dental, telemedicine and imaging rooms.
- At the inauguration regional health officials said on‑site medical urgent care will operate Monday to Friday from 15:00 to 22:00 and that nights and weekends will continue to be covered at the Punto de Atención Continuada (PAC) in Cangas.
- As a compensatory measure Moaña will receive a nurse‑staffed ambulance operating 24 hours a day instead of the current 12‑hour vehicle, a change Sergas says helps guarantee round‑the‑clock urgent response.
- Local leaders and residents rejected the limited urgent‑care schedule as insufficient, recalled the land‑transfer agreement they say envisaged local emergency coverage, and vowed to continue weekly protests and political pressure.
- Sergas cites staffing and organisational reasons for centralising overnight and weekend shifts and has promised to evaluate the new arrangement after a few months while the town keeps up a long campaign that began when urgent care was moved to Cangas in April 2020.
