- To strengthen care at the community and family level with a comprehensive ambulatory, non-hospital vision for long-term care of dementia patients through specific rehabilitation programs.
- To establish, grow, maintain, and regulate day centres as an alternative for the comprehensive management of patients with dementia in the early stages of the disease.
- To destine the third level of attention to the study and management of difficult cases for an adequate differential and final diagnosis.
