SOCIAL SERVICE CENTRES
The aim of this catalogue is to set out the procedures necessary for the implementation of social services centres in Galicia.
All those facilities that have been legally typified in which services, programmes and activities of social services in the different social areas are carried out in a stable and continuous manner will be considered as social services centres. These areas of action in the field of social services define the typology of the centres, which may be:
- Centres for the elderly
- Centres for people with disabilities
- Centres for children
- Centres for minors
- Centres for families
- Centres for victims of gender violence
- Centres for inclusion
The provision of social services in Galicia is a regulated activity subject to a system of registration and prior authorisation, as set forth in article 68.1 of Law 13/2008 on social services in Galicia, following compliance with the obligations and requirements imposed by the regulations in force.
Once these procedures have been completed, the activity may be carried out, which does not exempt from compliance with other matters related to the regulatory and sectoral reference framework.
Law 13/2008, of 3 December, on social services.
Decree 254/2011, of 23 December, which establishes the system of registration, authorisation, accreditation and inspection of social services in Galicia.
