Voluntary nursing assistants from Prignitz successfully trained!

In the district of Prignitz, nine committed people recently successfully trained people in need of support. In a qualification course that took place from May 27 to June 24, 2025, eight women and a man from the districts of Prignitz and Ostprignitz-Ruppin were trained to provide valuable help in everyday life of older people. This reports Maz-online.de .

The course comprised a total of 30 hours, spread over weekly meetings that took place every Tuesday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Under the professional direction of Nicole Lindemann, the coordinator "Nursing on site", and other coordinators from Karstädt were conveyed to the participants valuable knowledge and practical skills. Mayor Axel Schmidt von Perleberg was present at the ceremony to award the certificates and praised the use of the volunteers.

knowledge for everyday life

The goal of the course was clear: the participants should not only learn how they can support people in need, but also how they can promote their independence and relieve relatives. Special topics such as the support of people with dementia were also dealt with. This information comes from another source that deals with similar training and indicates the importance of such courses: Bildungswerk.de .

"It is great to see how many people are willing to work on volunteers for others.

volunteering is worthwhile

The acquired qualification evidence enables graduates to be insured in a group of helper. This not only promotes motivation to put your own skills in the service of the community, but also makes it easier to exchange ideas with other helpers. "The network of like -minded people is extremely valuable," emphasizes Lindemann.

Registration for future courses and detailed information provision are possible in the town hall in Perleberg, where the contact details for registration can also be found. Participation in the course was free of charge, which further easier. More information about upcoming qualification courses is also available on the website of the KJR Prignitz .
