Household assistance (Wmo).
Household help will change in the course of 2025. Read more information in the article: Household support from Wmo changes . |
Household support is, for example, help with cleaning, tidying up or doing the dishes. You can hire someone for this yourself. Do you need help with your household tasks and are you unable to solve the problem yourself due to illness or a disability? Then you can report this to the municipality.
Principles of domestic support:
- We look at what you can still do. Your own capabilities are the focus.
- What you can do yourself, we will not take from you.
- For what you can no longer do, we arrange appropriate support.
- Where we can, we help you become fitter and more independent. For example, through coaching or training.
- Are you sufficiently independent again? Then we will reduce the support step by step.
Household support cannot be used for:
- Cleaning outside windows.
- Taking care of pets.
- Maintaining the garden.
- Doing the shopping.
