BalnearioLa definición de una tradición milenaria en Andalucía

Resumo

We define the health resorts as establishments that have as a fundamental characteristic the use of medicinal mineral waters declared of public utility, with facilities and medical equipment to perform the treatments derived from this speciality. A health resort in Andalusia is subject to different legal competencies in relation to the Administration: the declaration of public utility will depend on the Autonomous Administration; also of the Ministry of Healthcare, because many of them are considered sanitary places and follow the protocol of clinics regarding requirements and inspections; of Tourism Ministry because these places are declared tourist interest, and the Local Administration depends on their relationship in terms of building permits, maintenance of public roads, drinking water and urban waste. Thus, experts consulted in a study carried out between 2009 and 2010 on this type of establishments in Andalusia support the need for specific legislation on them in Andalusia.
