indicated that the provision of social services by State cannot be confused with the
reparations that the victims of humans rights violation are entitled to, due to the specific
damage produced by the violation,18 this includes the expansion and improvements that the
State makes to the aforementioned services. Thus, the Court considers that the victims in
this case should receive different treatment in relation to the process and procedure that
should be followed in order to be treated at public health institutions. Similarly, when
providing psychological treatment the circumstances and needs of each person should be
considered in order to provide individual and family treatment, as agreed with each party
and after an individual assessment.19

The Court values the recent progress reported by the State and the representatives
regarding the measures taken, or that are set to be taken, that strive to effectively and
comprehensively implement this reparation measurefor all beneficiaries, if they so desire.
The Court also notes that compliance with this obligation by the State may depend, to a
large extent, on the cooperation and information provided by the representatives and
beneficiaries. Therefore, it stresses the importance of continuing and advancing coordination
between the State and the representatives to finalize compliance with this measure, such
that it effectively reaches all beneficiaries.
