Care & support

Individual support

Individual support helps you keep living independently and fill your days in a way that feels good. Think of help with keeping track of things, going outside together or staying in touch with others.

What we do

  • Making a daily or weekly plan together
  • Keeping track of post and appointments
  • Walking, shopping or going to the community centre together
  • Support for family carers, so they can keep going

What this does not include

  • Treatment by a psychologist or other therapist

Who it is for

For people with, for example, early memory problems, a disability or few social contacts, and for the people close to them.

How care starts

  1. You get in touch online or by phone
  2. We discuss which route fits: municipality or Wlz
  3. You meet your regular support worker
  4. Together we set goals and regularly check how things are going

How is it paid for?

Social Support Act (Wmo)Long-term Care Act (Wlz)

Individual support is usually funded by the municipality (Wmo) and sometimes through the Long-term Care Act. Who decides depends on your situation. We help you find the right route.
