Italian term

CAE (Communità Alloggio Estensiva)

Italian to English Medical Medical (general) treatment facility
This appears in the discharge instructions of a hospital patient, advising where to seek additional help if needed:

Per ulteriori necessità di carattere sanitario o legate alle terapie, potete contattare l'ambulatorio del CAE al number [xxx]

What is the English version of the communità alloggio estensiva? I could translate the words and say "extended housing community" but I think I would be missing the meaning of this in Italian. (You often need to understand the culture and customs of another country before you can translate the meaning of something.)

(I assume that in this case, CAE does refer to this type of facility ... is there another possible meaning of CAE that could apply here?)

Thanks for your help with this.

I think it's the Centro Alte Energie Hi All,

Thank you for pitching in and trying to help me. Looking at the links that Shera Lyn provided, it makes more sense to me that in this case the CAE mentioned in the report is this Centro Alte Energie, given the rest of the case history. The patient was getting treatment in Brescia ... I always go out of my way to leave out information that could in any way identify a particular patient, and in this case I left out some useful context. Shera Lyn, if you feel like it, please post this as an answer ... and thanks to the others for trying to make sense of this communita' alloggio estensiva false trail.

CAE (Communità Alloggio Estensiva) @ Shera, I think Joseph is right with his findings for CAE, I don't think this exclusively applies to radiotherapy but I don't know!

@ mag, these are not 'sheltered housing'. The sentence mentions a clinic, outpatients: contattare l\'ambulatorio del CAE. Sheltered housing does not normally have this facility, at least not in the UK, Cheers to everyone, Aida

"Centro Alte Energie" appears to be the name of a radiotherapy/follow up facility:

Costituito nel 1962, su iniziativa del prof. Mauro Piemonte, dall'Amministrazione degli Civili, per la terapia di malattie neoplastiche con radiazioni di alta energia. Ha sede presso l'Ospedale Civile di Brescia ed è diretto dal prof. Mauro Piemonte.

I would suggest that it be left in the original Italian. But you might want to add "High Energy / Radiation Therapy Center" in parentheses.

"(You often need to understand the culture and customs of another country before you can translate the meaning of something)".

"Sacred words". I very much agree

extra care housing

many of the references to 'Communità Alloggio Estensiva' seem to refer to patients with mental health problems which sounds like 'extra care housing' - a form of sheltered accommodation specifically for those with mental health problems - see the reference from 'Which'.

[...] Rehabilitation Centre


I am not acquainted with the CAEs but looking at pictures and description of the institutions, I would think they are comparable to specific Rehabilitation Centres helping patients with their specific needs.

The sentence: Per ulteriori necessità di carattere sanitario o legate alle terapie, potete contattare l'ambulatorio del CAE al number [xxx] mentions an

ambulatorio = clinic, day hospital
https://www.wordreference.com/iten/ambulatorio

which reassures me in thinking that these are Rehabilitation Centres

The Brain Injury Rehabilitation Centre, helps people with acquired
brain injuries to rebuild their lives regain their independence and maximise their quality of life
. No brain injury is the same so we offer individualised treatment programmes for each service user because.

Note: they don't have anything to do with drug or alcohol rehabilitation centres!

You could also use Assistance Centres
