Sant Camil de Sant Pere de Ribes

Sant Camil de Sant Pere de Ribes is a sociosanitary center located in Sant Pere de Ribes, Barcelona. It recently gained prominence as the location where Noelia Castillo, a 25-year-old woman, received euthanasia on March 26, 2026. Castillo's case was highly publicized due to a nearly two-year legal battle to obtain authorization for a "dignified death." Her initial request to the Comisió de Garantia i Avaluació de Catalunya in July 2024 was met with legal opposition from her father. Despite this, the commission approved her request. The event sparked debate, with the Spanish bishops expressing opposition to the euthanasia procedure. The center's role in facilitating Castillo's legally sanctioned euthanasia has made it central to discussions surrounding end-of-life rights and the ethical considerations of assisted dying in Spain.
