Rogelio Frigerio inaugurates mental health day hospital in Diamante

Governor Rogelio Frigerio and Diamante Mayor Ezio Gieco have inaugurated a new mental health day hospital in Diamante, Entre Ríos. This facility is the second of its kind to open in the province since 1993.

The center, designed for adults over 18, was created by repurposing a disused building within the Colonia Hospital grounds. The project involved an investment of over 30 million pesos from the provincial treasury, covering renovations to floors, walls, and bathrooms, as well as the installation of climate control, full equipment, and three consultation rooms for individual and group sessions.

During the inauguration, Governor Frigerio addressed the historical deficit in mental health infrastructure, stating that while many discuss the topic, little has been done. He announced plans to continue expanding the provincial health network with a halfway house in Tala and another day hospital in Colón.
