San Juan de Dios España has reported extensive operational reach for 2025, serving more than 2.6 million people through 80 centers in Spain. The organization’s activities encompass hospital care, mental health, disability support, and elderly care, supported by a workforce of nearly 18,000 employees.

To protect sensitive patient information, the healthcare network has implemented Hornetsecurity to provide AI-driven email security and automated Microsoft 365 backups. This cybersecurity initiative, managed in partnership with Plexus Technology, aims to meet National Security Scheme (ENS) requirements and enhance data recovery capabilities across its various health centers.

Expanding its technological scope, the organization is now emphasizing a human-centric digital strategy. The Digital Strategy and Systems Directorate seeks to move beyond infrastructure management to drive organizational transformation by connecting institutional strategy with people and processes. Recognizing that its work spans diverse fields such as research, social action, and mental health, the institution asserts that artificial intelligence and digital tools must be tailored to the specific needs of each unique environment rather than applying universal solutions.
