These health itineraries are especially focused on addressing pre-fragility situations in order to promote people's autonomy.
For its part, the Councilor for Social Services, Melba Miñano, commented that "there are also itineraries that promote social and community participation of the elderly, generate the creation of projects linked to the community and, therefore, allow to share experiences for a better society. "
