New nursing competence center in Suhl: A milestone for the region!

A new starting point for people in need of care and their relatives has emerged in Suhl: The DRK district association Suhl opened its new nursing competence center last week. The ceremonial opening took place in Marienstieg, where the new premises can also be found. Nowhere in the region is the help for seniors and people with impairments as important as here, and this step is certainly a good one. Sebastian Wächter, Managing Director of the DRK district association Suhl, gave an impressive speech, while Mayor Jan Turczynski separated the red band and officially opened the center.

But the new center does not yet have all departments completely on offer. However, the responsible work is high pressure to integrate the remaining areas as quickly as possible. The main focus is on the needs of those in need of care and their relatives. In order to help people as best as possible, the center offers comprehensive care advice that is tailored to the individual circumstances of those affected. The DRK website explains very clearly how this works.

extensive services for those in need of care

In the new nursing competence center, customers can receive support in various areas. The division into care levels, which has a decisive influence on the maintenance insurance benefits obtained, is particularly important. Depending on the severity of the impairment, those affected are divided into the following care levels:

• care level 1: Mederate impairment of independence
• care level 2: Significant impairment of independence
• care level 3: serious impairment of independence
• care level 4: The most serious impairment of independence
• care level 5: hardship case (most severe impairment with special requirements for nursing care)

A thorough assessment by the medical service of the health insurance companies (MDK) is a prerequisite. Here, the resources and skills of the person in need of care are recorded in a differentiated manner in order to ensure tailored support. drk informs that essential areas such as personal care, nutrition, mobility and social contacts are taken into account.

a step into the future

With the new nursing competence center, Suhl makes a valuable contribution to improving care and support offers. The vision of the DRK district association is to offer the people in the region a comprehensive support that takes into account both medical and psychosocial aspects. The inquiries about such offers are not only very popular, but also essential in an aging society. The project shows that contemporary solutions are taken care of.

In addition to the services offered directly, the center also provides information about aids and other resources that can help those in need of care and their families. If you want to learn more, you can get an idea of ​​the services and options
