Offers a caregiver course by GFO

In an effort to make the transition from hospital to home care easier, GFO Clinics Rhein-Berg is offering a free family care training program for relatives and interested parties who are suddenly confronted with care dependency. This initiative, which has been in place since 2013, aims to provide practical skills, knowledge about diseases, and support strategies to help caregivers manage at home.

The training, which takes place at the hospital during the inpatient stay or immediately after discharge, covers important care techniques such as proper positioning and movement, body hygiene, and practical assistance with dressing, eating, and drinking. It also includes initial care courses that run over three weeks, with the next course starting on August 6th.

The care training provided by GFO Clinics Rhein-Berg is not focused on advertisements but aims to equip relatives with the necessary skills for caregiving. The exchange between caring relatives is also an integral part of the training. Particularly affected are partners, siblings, or children of elderly, multiply affected, and dementia patients.

Kordula Halm-Rogowski, a care expert at GFO Clinics Rhein-Berg, is the contact person for more information and registration for the care training. She can be reached at mobile 0170 9986419. A notice from GFO Clinics Rhein-Berg was published, inviting relatives to take advantage of this valuable opportunity.

It's worth noting that the prerequisite for participation in the care training is that the person to be cared for has a care level. In about two-thirds of care cases, relatives are the primary caregivers, and the number of people cared for at home is constantly increasing.

This family care training program typically aims to provide relatives with practical skills, knowledge about the diseases, and support strategies to help them care for their family members at home. These trainings generally cover topics like understanding dementia and other chronic conditions, communication strategies, managing daily activities, handling behavioral changes, and self-care for caregivers.

For those interested, it is recommended to contact GFO Clinics Rhein-Berg directly or visit their official website for more detailed information about the program.
