Chemnitz Social Welfare Office provides information on services for senior citizens

All Chemnitz residents aged 80 and over will receive an information letter from the City of Chemnitz Social Welfare Office next week for the first time about the services provided by the City of Chemnitz Senior Citizens' Social Service.

Most people want to live at home for as long as possible, even in old age. To ensure that this is possible when support is required within their own four walls, professional social workers offer senior citizens and their relatives free and independent assistance.

The Senior Citizens' Social Service provides advice on all topics relating to old age by telephone on 488 5555 and/or at the office, Annaberger Straße 93, or at the senior citizens' homes.

From A - as in "everyday help" to Z - as in "living at home", information is available on services as well as support with applications and organising service providers.

It is expressly pointed out that the employees identify themselves with a service card and do not appear unannounced for home visits.

If you would like an information letter, even if you have not yet reached the age of 80, you can request one by calling the Senior Citizens' Social Service on 488 5555 or by emailing senioren.behindertenhilfe(at)stadt-chemnitz.de.
