If you suffer from a chronic illness and need occupational therapy but find it too difficult to go to a practice, you can arrange a home visit.

Whether inpatient care, short-term care, day care, outpatient care or care at home - the Munich Care Exchange helps you to find suitable offers.

If you need to move to an assisted living facility for health reasons, the Social Security Office can help you.

Anyone who is unable to do their shopping or prepare a hot meal can apply for a subsidy for meals on wheels or the social lunch programme.

The elderly care service supports senior citizens with travel allowances, telephone assistance and home emergency call systems.

With a care directive, you can specify who should - or should not - take on this task if care is required.

If an adult can no longer manage their own affairs due to a mental illness or disability, you can apply for guardianship.

If you are a senior citizen and have bought a laptop, computer or tablet, the City of Munich will support your purchase with a grant.

Legal guardianship can be avoided by a power of attorney. Authorised representatives are not subject to control by the competent local court.

Preventive home visits are intended to help recognise emergency and dangerous situations among older people at an early stage.
