Detailed description
The "Hamburg Home Visit for Seniors" is a free, personalized consultation service where specially trained home visits expertly answer your questions about aging in Hamburg. Upon request, the staff can also provide contacts to professional services and senior citizen services.
The home visit typically includes a one-time information and consultation session – either at your home or at the district office. A trusted person is welcome to participate. Of course, you can cancel the session at any time.
The goal of the Hamburg home visit is to identify preventive and support needs early on and to facilitate your access to existing services for older people. This promotes your quality of life and independence and supports your continued residence in your familiar surroundings for as long as possible – according to your wishes and possibilities.
The topics of the home visit are varied and include, among others:
- Your health situation, diet and exercise
- Social participation and social contacts
- Opportunities for community engagement
- Living situation, especially accessibility and household support
- Possible care and support needs
