Our Services for Family Caregivers

We are here when family caregivers are unavailable.

Individuals with spinal cord injuries or similar conditions can usually only live at home thanks to the care provided by family members.

If this care suddenly becomes unavailable, serious complications can arise within a very short time. The consequences are hospitalization and often lengthy medical treatments.

When family caregivers are unavailable, affected individuals are immediately admitted to the “Rückenwind plus” unit.

We are here so that family caregivers can recover.

Family caregivers are available for their loved ones around the clock, seven days a week. This requires extraordinary dedication. Without rest and breaks, it is not sustainable in the long term.

Family caregivers should take regular breaks. True recovery is only possible when you have the reassuring feeling that your loved one requiring care is in the best hands during your time off – medically, in terms of nursing care, and personally. This is exactly what the “Rückenwind plus” unit stands for.

We listen to your experience.

As a family caregiver, you will be involved from the beginning, including in the instruction of the professional staff.
