About the volunteering opportunity

Our facility offers full inpatient care as well as short-term and respite care for elderly people in need of care.

Your Tasks

In our residential facility for senior citizens, we are looking for volunteers who would like to give some of their time to senior citizens, e.g. accompanying them on excursions and events, discovering and observing the beautiful garden together with senior citizens, going for walks together and much more.

You are welcome to get creative yourself and adapt your time to the needs of the senior citizens.

Our benefits
  • Guidance by qualified staff
  • Liability insurance
  • free excursions
  • free events
  • Activity certificates
  • Accident insurance

What's needed

Volunteers must be native German speakers.
  • Empathy, openness, patience and fun in dealing with senior citizens
  • Creativity in leisure activities with older people
  • Our residents need support and have difficulty relating to others. A good knowledge of German is therefore also important.
