It was created in 1888 with a purpose to watch over the health of Ecuadorians but the needs of the citizenry demanded wider social assistance, mainly for the most vulnerable populated areas of society.
Its 4 hospitals, the Luis Vernaza, the Roberto Gilbert Children´s Hospital, the Alfredo Paulson Women´s Hospital and the Neurosciences Institute attend to people throughout the country in their different specialties. In 2018 it extended an average of 4 million medical attentions to children, adults and elderly folks.
Among these, the specialized human team stands out as well as the technological equipment in their clinical and molecular biology labs, the Image Diagnosis Center, the Transplant Unit, the Burned Unit at the Luis Vernaza, the Cardiology and Cadiosurgery Unit to treat congenital cardiopathy for children, the unit for the burned at the Roberto Gilbert as well as its labs and Images Center.
At the Women´s Hospital they specialize in the integral care and attention of women´s health in all stages. The Neurosciences Institute concentrates on attending mental health, as well as the Addictive Behavior Unit for 90 persons, between men and women, where they specialize in handling persons with addiction problems.
Attention for young girls and boys in academically as well as moral upbringing through its two educational Units : the Santa Luisa de Marillac and the José Domingo de Santistevan where its students receive educational training at the forefront of high educational standards reflected in international and local recognition received as well as achievements obtained by its students which has led them to international representations such as the recent case of a student who will travel to Byelorussia to intervene in a European Mathematical contest representing Ecuador. During 2018 a total of 2.315 students have come together from the initial period until high school graduation.
Free-of-charge attention to girls of scant means through both their homes: Calderon Ayluardo in Guayaquil and the Manuel Galecio in Alausí which has allowed 166 young girls between 5 and 17 to benefit in the same year from different parts of the country. To them the Junta extends an integral scholarship which comprises education, lodging, nourishment, health attention and clothing.
Elderly adults are also attended by the Junta. For them there is the Corazon de Jesus Home where 318 elderly men and women reside, many of them subsidized by the Junta which assumes costs generated by care and attention for them.
The successful aging model of attention handled by the Corazon de Jesus Home has opened up new services for their attention. One of them is Los Robles designed to extend care and lodging in a temporal way without severing family ties, as well as the Patrimonial and Metropolitan Pantheon which offer burial for different needs.
Social attention at a national level has been reflected in the 1569 persons who have received mobility implements such as wheelchairs, crutches, walkers, canes, among others, free of charge.
la Junta de Beneficencia de Guayaquil meets the challenge of moving forward to continue serving Ecuadorians from all areas.
