Enhanced service housing

Enhanced service housing is intended for people who need help around the clock and the services available at home are no longer sufficient.

The service can be applied for in writing on a form or orally. The application will be processed in a multi-professional SAS team as soon as all the necessary attachments have been submitted.

When processing an application, an assessment of the need for services is made, which is based on the Social Welfare Act. The decision will be sent to the client by post.

Short-term care (respite care)

Short-term care is intended for those in need of temporary care, treatment and rehabilitation. You can also apply for a facility providing short-term care to give a caring relative the opportunity to rest. When thinking about a suitable place to stay, it is important to consider physical and mental performance, i.e. the need for help in different situations. Care can be arranged as a temporary or regular treatment, i.e. as respite care.
