Action Help for Elderly People
This page was translated from German using artificial intelligence. The translation may contain errors or inaccuracies. In case of doubt, the German original version prevails.
The "Action Help for Elderly People" is an initiative of the Oberbergischer Kreis in collaboration with the associations of independent welfare organizations (Caritas, Diakonie, and DRK). It contributes to ensuring that elderly people can remain in their own homes and familiar family and social environments for as long as possible, and live their lives as independently as they can.
The support for elderly people is mainly provided through social care such as visits, reading aloud, writing services, accompaniment during walks or doctor's visits, and assistance with shopping. Support in the household area
(joint cooking, washing, cleaning the apartment, etc.) is also part of the initiative's offerings. However, nursing activities and the complete takeover of household tasks are not included.
Additionally, the initiative offers the opportunity to engage in volunteer work. Those who are interested and enjoy interacting with people can meet interesting individuals through the "Action Help for Elderly People," pursue a varied activity, and make a significant impact with small gestures.
