Why this matters: Residents of Amelia and nearby Guaynabo communities who rely on the CDT for care will need to travel to the Guaynabo Medical Mall during the closure, with town-provided transport available through the Medical Appointments area.

Guaynabo Mayor Edward O’Neill announced that the Amelia Medical Center (the CDT de Amelia) will close temporarily starting Monday, November 9, for improvements to its physical plant. Medical services will continue at the Guaynabo Medical Mall (GMM) so patients keep receiving care, O’Neill said. The town will keep transportation available from the CDT de Amelia to the Guaynabo Medical Mall through the Department of Medical Emergencies, via the Medical Appointments area.

We want to bring peace of mind to the residents of Amelia and nearby communities.

"We want to bring peace of mind to the residents of Amelia and nearby communities. Although the facilities will be closed temporarily to carry out these improvements, medical services will not be interrupted," O’Neill Rosa said, adding that alternatives and transportation have been arranged. The project carries an estimated investment of $723,893.17 for rehabilitation and conditioning work, including improvements to air conditioning systems, roofs, floors, lighting, sanitary installations and other areas of the structure.

O’Neill said the upgrades strengthen municipal health infrastructure and provide safer, more adequate and comfortable facilities for patients and staff. For information and to coordinate transportation, citizens can call 787-720-4040, extension 4108.
