Rafael Yanes warns that “without human or financial resources it will be very difficult to reach the national average”

SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, June 14. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Deputy of the Common, Rafael Yanes, has asked the Canarian deputies this Tuesday to promote a great pact for dependency in the Canary Islands to try to “comply with the law” on the islands and recognize the rights of dependents.

In the debate in the parliamentary committee on the extraordinary dependency report for 2021, he warned that “without human or financial resources it will be very difficult to reach the national average.”

Yanes has proposed the report with “humility and enthusiasm” to try to serve as a “turning point” to improve dependence on the islands and within the catalog of proposals he has also proposed the creation of smaller residences closer to the dependent’s environment and the increase in telecare and home help services in a context of accelerated aging of the population.

It has valued the implementation of the file manager and that it can be connected to the work carried out by councils and town councils and proposed that management be “simplified” with the unification of documentation in such a way that with the same visit of the worker it is done degree recognition and the PIA (Individual Care Program).

He has also pointed out that the List of Job Posts is the same as in 2008, giving as an example that in the Valencian Community the personnel increased by 300% six years ago and it has been placed in the upper middle zone of the ranking of communities.

The same happens with economic resources, he has indicated, since the expenditure per inhabitant and year was 67 euros in the Canary Islands in 2021 compared to the 148 euros of the national average or the 185 of Castilla y León, with a total expenditure of 125 million compared to 329 million in Castilla y León.

Likewise, he has indicated that there are a lack of residential places, just over 8,500, to comply with the recommendations of the WHO, for which he has asked to finish the second plan for socio-health infrastructures “and start the third now.”

It has also proposed setting a “minimum advance aid” in cases where it is possible, as is done with the PCI, and giving complementary aid, in line with the model of Castilla y León, updating the catalog of services and building night centers .

Yanes has warned that in the south of Fuerteventura and El Hierro there are people with recognized benefits but without access to services and has proposed the creation of a social dialogue table with public institutions, users, family members and workers of the system to present and debate proposals of improvement.

The deputy of the Common has also referred to a draft report of the General Directorate of Dependency where proposals are collected for the coming years, coinciding with those of his institution, and he hopes that the good results that the first months of This exercise.

The 2021 report shows that the Canary Islands was the Autonomous Community that took the longest to process the degree recognition and PIA approval files and the one that had one of the worst coverage rates with respect to its population in Spain.

The maximum legal term that the administration has to resolve a request for dependency aid is 180 days and in the Canary Islands it reaches 943 days and to reach the national average in care for dependent people, 30,000 people would have to be incorporated into the system.

Melodie Mendoza (ASG) has recognized that dependency “is a subject that all governments fail” despite the fact that they “work their asses off”, which shows that “it is not easy to solve”, with current figures that “sad them “, although he has defended the work and effort of the Ministry of Social Rights.

YES WE CAN: “WE ARE ON THE RIGHT WAY”

María del Río (Yes We Can) commented that many of the Common Council’s proposals coincide with those of the Government itself and recognizing how “difficult” it is to bring the Canary Islands “up to date” in providing dependency, she has put table the good results of the first five months of the year, with increases in PIA, degree resolutions and processing of files.

“We are on the right track”, he indicated, emphasizing that there was “a structural problem” derived from the lack of a computer system that would group all the files and make the processing more agile.

Now, he commented, “The Canary Islands have turned a corner and the light is beginning to be seen”.

Luis Campos, spokesman for NC, has indicated that the pandemic and the migration crisis have not allowed the Ministry to focus exclusively on dependency care, apart from the fact that by incorporating some 5,000 files into the system that were disaggregated “the list skyrocketed Standby”.

He has charged against the State cuts at the time of the PP government and stressed that “when there are resources there are results” because in the month of May, for example, there have been 1,050 registrations, the highest figure in history.

He has proposed to reformulate some socio-health infrastructure plans with councils and municipalities, start working on the third and “explore” the option of collaborative housing as an alternative to residences.

THE UNIT “IS NOT A TOY”, POINTS OUT THE PP

Poli Suárez (PP) has recalled that his party proposed a dependency pact in December 2019 because “it is not a toy but a problem” that is confirmed by the “very serious” data of 2021.

For this reason, he has proposed allocating more budgetary resources, launching a social employment plan with councils and town councils and reformulating the second infrastructure plan.

Jana González (CC-PNC) has indicated that the elderly in the Canary Islands are in a situation of “helplessness” because the dependency law is violated, the system is “not very flexible” and the workplace is “precarious”.

He has demanded more “leadership and involvement” from the regional government “and not in words”, but when the next regional budgets are drawn up.

Teresa Cruz (PSOE) has said that the analysis of dependency in the Canary Islands cannot ignore the fact that at the time of CC at the head of the community, state funds were not used because the Canary Islands had their own system and that during the mandate of the PP at the head of the State there were big cuts.

He lamented that for many years “there was no roadmap” and although “they are still not satisfied” with the management balance, he has shown his confidence in the ‘Canarias te Cuida’ plan and the rise of home help to improve results.
