Project content

The aim of the project is to set up a new health service. It informs about the possibilities of care and support in the project regions and develops a needs-based aid plan in close contact with elderly people and their relatives. Case Managers try to strengthen the families' resources as part of each case care and seek common solutions that are in line with the needs of the family system. On this basis they work together with those affected to gain adequate access to the desired services.
