In these times of uncertainty, lifestyle changes create tensions that directly affect our mental health. Problems such as insomnia, anxiety, depression, memory difficulties, concentration issues, and cognitive decline are becoming increasingly common. Given this situation, there is a need to rethink how we approach mental functioning in the context of an increasingly complex world.
At ATAM, we have developed a new assessment scale that evaluates the five key domains of mental activity from a health perspective rather than a disease-focused one. This innovative tool can be applied to everyone, regardless of their mental health status.
We invite you to collaborate with our Clinical Team as volunteers in the experimental phase of this mental functioning assessment scale. By participating, you will receive a detailed report with the results and personalized recommendations to maintain a mentally healthy life.
ATAM, always committed to your health and well-being.
On July 17th, as part of the IX Congress of the Bar Association of Barcelona organized by the Illustrious Bar Association of Barcelona (ICAB), Vivelibre participated in the session on “AI at the service of the elderly or people with disabilities.”
The panel was presented by Xavier Puigdollers Noblom, lawyer and President of the Commission for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and moderated by Joaquin Poch Sala, lawyer and President of the Commission for the Rights of the Elderly.
Alberto Sanfeliu Cortés, Professor of Computational Sciences and AI at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, spoke first. He presented a vision of the future where people, robots, and avatars can coexist in society and detailed some of the projects he is involved in.
Next, José Pérez Plano, Head of Institutional Development at ViveLibre, spoke. He presented what ViveLibre offers to the elderly and people with disabilities through its solutions, and how AI supports advances in predictive processes to contribute to the health care and personal autonomy of these groups.
The combination of ViveLibre’s origin, with over 50 years of understanding processes related to disability and dependency, has created a unique foundation for deploying the data processing capabilities offered by AI to serve people through ViveLibre’s solutions.
The session was held in a hybrid format, both in person and via streaming, and reached a total audience of nearly 100 people, mostly comprised of legal professionals.La sesión se celebró de forma mixta, tanto presencial como mediante streaming, y en total se alcanzó una audiencia cercana a las 100 personas, mayoritariamente conformada por profesionales de la abogacía.
On June 27th, the launch session of the CIMER project took place in an event held by all its partners in the city of Lleida.
CIMER is an innovative initiative that aims to raise awareness about the importance of promoting more inclusive communities. By placing people at the forefront and center of change, alongside leaders and relevant stakeholders, CIMER mobilizes communities and contributes to the growth of the entire social fabric.
CIMER operates based on the collaborative action of its eight partners, all of whom have extensive experience in providing care to people and have approaches to action in various territories of the Pyrenees. Among the CIMER partners are ATAM and VIVELIBRE S.L, as well as other national and European entities:
– Fundación Privada Ilersis
– Support Girona
– UDAF65
– UDAF31
– URAF Occitanie
– Fondation Marie-Louise
The main objective of CIMER is to promote high levels of inclusion in mountainous and rural areas, enabling people with disabilities and older adults with dependency or in situations of frailty to fully exercise their right to an independent life within their community, without being forced to leave their homes. This objective aligns with Article 19 of the International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN, 2006).
In this regard, CIMER will focus on three key areas:
1.- Empowerment, training, and identification of best practices in independent living.
2.- Actions for the prevention of dependency and the promotion of personal autonomy.
3.- Creation of more inclusive rural and mountain communities.
The development of the project is supported financially by the INTERREG POCTEFA program, co-financed at 65% by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) through the Interreg V-A Spain-France-Andorra Program (POCTEFA 2021-2027). The aim of POCTEFA is to strengthen the economic and social integration of the border area between Spain, France, and Andorra, focusing on the development of cross-border economic, social, and environmental activities through joint strategies for sustainable territorial development.
The collaboration among CIMER partners stimulates creativity and the generation of new ideas, ensuring the project’s success. The project’s launch meeting, held on Thursday, June 27th, at the Llotja de Lleida, is a clear example of this commitment. The Private Foundation Ilersis, as the project leader, hosted the event, welcoming all CIMER partners. Participants also had the opportunity to tour the Foundation’s new facilities and the Seu Vella of the city, thereby strengthening cooperation bonds.
This meeting marks the beginning of CIMER’s activity schedule, which is designed to generate a positive change in inclusive mountain and rural communities.

ATAM celebró su Junta General anual el pasado jueves 27 de mayo en el auditorio de Telefónica. En un año marcado por la pandemia de la COVID-19, la Asociación puso de manifiesto la relevancia y la capacidad de reacción como sistema privado de apoyo para las familias que conviven con situaciones de discapacidad y dependencia.
Así lo destacaron los intervinientes en una Junta General que, por segundo año consecutivo, ha tenido que celebrarse virtualmente a causa de las limitaciones existentes por motivo de la pandemia.
Ésta ha sido la primera vez que la nueva presidenta de ATAM, Raquel Fernández, realizó la apertura de la Junta, en la que intervinieron también el vicepresidente de la asociación, Fernando Medrano y el consejero Ángel López junto al Director General, Ignacio Aizpún.
Durante el desarrollo del acto quedó de manifiesto el peso de las actuaciones llevadas a cabo por ATAM como uno de los pilares del sistema de protección social de los trabajadores de Telefónica. Durante el pasado ejercicio fue especialmente importante el rápido ajuste realizado por la organización para dar respuesta y ofrecer soluciones a los socios de ATAM en unos meses extremadamente complejos, con confinamiento y donde el flujo de trabajo ha tenido que adaptarse rápidamente al modo del teletrabajo.
Especial mención merecen los profesionales de Equipo Clínico que recuperaron sus consultas presenciales en tiempo récord y ayudaron a un número importante de usuarios a paliar los efectos del confinamiento haciendo un uso intensivo de la modalidad de teleconsulta.
Por su parte, el Director General de ATAM, además de compartir las cifras y analizar la evolución del ejercicio 2020, quiso reflexionar sobre el impacto que los avances tecnológicos están teniendo en la sociedad y, especialmente, en el cuidado de la salud y la promoción de la autonomía de las personas más vulnerables.
El acto concluyó con las palabras de la presidenta de ATAM agradeciendo el compromiso y en reconocimiento a la labor tanto profesional como personal de los trabajadores de la institución.
Desde este mes de junio, el Equipo Clínico de ATAM pone en marcha una Campaña para promover la Actividad Física y la prevención de la salud. Todos los socios de ATAM así como su unidad familiar incluidos sus padres tendrán acceso a una valoración personalizada así como la aplicación de un protocolo de actividad física.
Esta campaña completamente gratuita tiene como objetivo principal detectar las personas con perfil sedentario y desarrollar programas de ejercicio para nuestros usuarios. Además, los profesionales médicos estudiarán las alternativas personalizadas más beneficiosas para promover la salud de las personas a través del ejercicio.
No pierdas la oportunidad de consultar con los profesionales del Equipo Clínico cualquier duda tanto presencialmente como por videoconsulta. Ellos realizarán una valoración multidimensional de la persona y sus necesidades por parte del médico especialista en Medicina Física y de Rehabilitación y también del psiquiatra y el médico de familia, cuando resulte necesario.
