Key Points
- Noemí Amador Pérez demands data on l’Albó centre's resident numbers, staff ratios, and pathologies.

- Inquires if government views staffing as adequate amid shortages and workload pressures.
- Party stresses priority on resident dignity, safety, and staff conditions.
Andorra Endavant general councillor Noemí Amador Pérez has filed written questions with the government requesting comprehensive data on human resources, healthcare provisions, and care operations at the l’Albó residential centre.
The submission addresses ongoing concerns about potential shortages of healthcare and care staff, as well as the intense care demands at the facility, which accommodates residents with complex needs. Amador seeks precise figures on the current resident count, the nature of pathologies at the centre, staff-to-resident ratios across shifts, and the number of available healthcare and care professionals to ensure adequate user attention.
Her questions also probe the protocols in place for managing behavioural crises, psychiatric episodes, or risk situations. Andorra Endavant further asks whether the executive deems existing staffing levels sufficient and if any deficiencies or incidents have occurred related to resident safety, mental health, or staff workload pressures.
In a statement, the party emphasised that "the dignity of care, resident safety, and proper working conditions for professionals must be an absolute priority." Amador has urged the government to provide "clear and transparent" answers on this sensitive matter, which affects residents, their families, and sector workers.
The government has not yet responded to the questions.
