The Home for the elderly and disabled persons is called an undertaking\u201d, the President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 said today in Primo\u0161ten at the opening of a new Home for the elderly and disabled persons in Bratski Dolac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the Home for the elderly and disabled persons is located in a building of the former elementary school in Bratski Dolac that for long hasn\u2019t been used for school needs, President Milanovi\u0107 warned that schools in Croatia have been empty for years and most of them are deteriorating. \u201cYou didn\u2019t allow this and you intended it for something that is right, good and noble today. We can despair as much as we want and constantly remind ourselves that there aren\u2019t as many children as there used to be. There aren\u2019t that many and they won&#8217;t appear overnight, we have to come to terms with it, not complain but take action\u201d, he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President Milanovi\u0107 said that it\u2019s a respectable fact that the construction and equipping of the Home was funded by the Municipality from its own resources, but added that he regrets that they didn\u2019t use money from the European funds. \u201cIt\u2019s regrettable that you didn\u2019t use European money while it\u2019s available because that\u2019s what it\u2019s for. Those euros are deserved in spite of the fact that they come from the richest European Union states. We didn\u2019t enter into this agreement empty-handed, we agreed to many benefits that we are giving them: opening up the country, a free market, an attack on Croatian industry, which very frequently could not withstand the competitive pressure of Western goods. \u201cAll of this is the price that Croatia has paid. That&#8217;s why we shouldn&#8217;t be particularly grateful for European funds, we should take them,\u201d said President Milanovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the opening ceremony, President Milanovi\u0107, accompanied by his host the Head of the Municipality of Primo\u0161ten Stipe Petrina and the Director of the Home for the elderly and disabled persons Nikolina Mimica, toured the premises of the Home that has a capacity to accommodate fifty-one residents. During the tour, it was said that the building in which the Home is located consists of a reconstructed ground floor and first floor and an additional second floor, and that the total cost of building and equipping the Home is 2.7 million euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to high-quality accommodation, the Home&#8217;s residents will have access to medical and health care services, social activities and professional support. The Home is equipped with a spacious modern kitchen in which meals will be prepared for other senior citizens who will not be residents of the Home, but will be able to come for a hot meal in the common rooms, while meals will be delivered to disabled persons in their homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside President Milanovi\u0107 was the Adviser to the President for Human Rights and Civil Society Melita Muli\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n<!--GALLERY BLOCK-->\n<div class=\"c-lightbox-gallery js-lightbox\">\n                <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0346-1024x683.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0346-768x512.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0692-1024x681.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0692-768x511.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0766-1024x669.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0766-768x502.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0864-1024x700.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0864-768x525.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n                    <!--single-->\n            <a data-no-swup class=\"c-lightbox-gallery__single js-lightbox-single\"\n               href=\"https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0991-1024x683.jpg\"\n               style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.predsjednik.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSC_0991-768x512.jpg')\"><\/a>\n            <!--end single-->\n        <\/div>\n<!--end GALLERY BLOCK-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PHOTO: Office of the President of the Republic of Croatia \/ Tomislav Bu\u0161ljeta<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cMost of the population will soon be older, it\u2019s a fact, and he who looks to the future undertakes such projects and makes them happen.
