Benalmádena has three very different centres: the Pueblo, with narrow streets and white houses on the hillside; the Costa, with flats and apartments by the sea; and Arroyo de la Miel, the most populated, with shops, a Cercanías station and life all year. Torremuelle is a quiet residential area of urbanisations with sea views.

What the service includes
Care for elderly or dependent people: personal hygiene, prescribed medication, companionship, mobility and meals.
Before hiring, describe the level of dependency, whether the person has to be moved, whether cooking is included and which nights need cover. In Benalmadena many families in Arroyo de la Miel and Benalmádena Costa start with a few hours a day and extend once they see how the person responds: a prudent way to size the service.
