The capacity of the elderly support establishment was formally increased after modernization works financed by the Recovery and Resilience Plan.
Dispatch No. 348/2026 from the Regional Secretary for Inclusion, Labour and Youth officially changed the capacity of the Nossa Senhora do Bom Caminho Establishment.

Following a technical reassessment, the Madeira Social Security Institute, IP-RAM, concluded that the establishment meets the conditions to accommodate more users.
The new maximum capacity set is as follows:
- 22 places in the social response of Residential Structure for the Elderly (ERPI, formerly designated "Home").

In total, the establishment will now have 72 places, a significant increase from the previous capacity of 9 places in the residential home and 30 in the day centre. The dispatch takes effect the day after its publication.
