You can access our services via a service needs assessment. You can apply for day activities by contacting Senior Info. If you are already a client of home care or informal care and would like to take part in day activities, please contact your designated worker. Find out more about service needs assessments.
As a rule, you will take part in the activities once a week, either for a whole day or a half day. The activities are subject to a fee, and the fee includes meals. If necessary, we can arrange group transport to the day activities and back home. In this case, the client fee for the day activities will be higher. Read more about fees.
We offer safe and comfortable day activities for elderly people, where everyone can be themselves and be heard and seen. Our days are made up of a sense of community and meaningful things to do.
Our activities include meals together, many kinds of exercise moments, mental workout sessions and crafts. We also enjoy live music and sing-alongs, which bring joy and refreshment to our days.
Our multi-disciplinary team consists of practical nurses and a physiotherapist. We support your wellbeing and overall functional capacity in order to ensure the fluency of your everyday life at home.
