Do you or one of your relatives need outpatient care because you can no longer care for yourself at home alone? Are your independence or abilities impaired due to illness or disability?
People in need of care who have health or nursing care insurance primarily receive financial benefits for body-related care measures (including personal hygiene), nursing care measures (including companionship, supervision) and help with household management (including cleaning the home, shopping) from their nursing care insurance fund in accordance with Book 11 of the Social Code (SGB XI). If someone is not insured for nursing care or if the benefits of the nursing care insurance are not sufficient, benefits of the assistance for nursing care according to the 12th Book of the Social Code (SGB XII) come into consideration.
The care support centers in the state of Bremen provide consumer-oriented, independent and free advice on all aspects of care (for contact details, see "Responsible agencies").
