Resumo: (elderly people)
The nursing home takes care of seniors and dependent persons on the basis of short- and long-term care. For this purpose, the town has created a special housing complex that consists of 69 single rooms and 13 barrier-free rooms for the elderly. This modern facility with its excellent infrastructure is a wonderful place that offers its residents peace and quiet.
The guiding principle of our home is You will be well taken care of. The residents with their autonomy and individual personalities are the focus of our facility. Our team does their best in order to provide the best conditions for the elderly and at the same time they take into consideration the residents’ individual needs and their life stories. It is very important for us to take care of not only the body but also the spirit and mind of our residents. Mutual respect and responsibility are the basic elements of our philosophy. Other values that are of great importance for us are: understanding, engagement, professionalism, reliability, equity and clarity.
Every resident has at disposal their own room with a bathroom and a balcony or a terrace. In 3 different living areas there are common rooms for the residents, where they can spend time with each other. Furthermore, the residents can have a cup of coffee in the café, take advantage of different therapy rooms, take a walk to a nearby garden or simply enjoy the sun on one of our two terraces. The residents are encouraged to spend their time on many activities that are organised by the nursing team, either inside or outside.
The tasks of the volunteer involve taking care of the elderly during their day-to-day activities but also supporting them in their free time. Our nursing staff provides a lot of interesting activities for the residents like trips, creative workshops, dancing, memory trainings, gaming afternoons, bowling and many more. It is very important for us to provide our residents a lot of stimulating opportunities that take into consideration their individual interests and needs.
