Day activities support the functional capacity, independent coping, mental agility and social relationships of the elderly, as well as improving the coping of the informal caregiver. Our clients include people with memory disorders who live at home, elderly people with an informal caregiver, elderly people with a decreased functional capacity, and elderly people who are lonely and long for social relationships.

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.
Day Activities Centre Solstrålen provides elderly people with a warm and pleasant environment for meeting other people and spending meaningful time together.
We often start the day with a moment together and a chat. We keep active through a variety of exercises and enjoy music and dancing together. We go outdoors every day and visit the lovely local parks, for example.
We also look after our mental wellbeing. We listen to music, talk, and engage in activities which boost our memory.
At Solstrålen, we do everyday things that bring us joy. We bake, do crafts, sing, and play group games. We bring rhythm, variety, and good company to your days.
The instructors provide individual support for each participant. They encourage physical activity and to get involved according to your abilities.
We have a team of practical nurses and a physiotherapist.
