Care that starts
with you.

Feeling safe in everyday life means more than receiving help. It also means being seen, feeling a sense of belonging and being able to be yourself.

01

Reassurance around the clock

For those who need care and support throughout the day and night.

02

Your needs matter

We treat you with respect and take your habits, wishes and individual needs into account.

03

A homelike everyday life

Space for both companionship and quiet moments, in a setting where you can feel at home.

WHEN SUPPORT AT HOME IS NO LONGER ENOUGH

When might 24-hour residential care be appropriate?

Twenty-four-hour residential care may be appropriate when a person needs care, support or supervision throughout the day and night, and living at home is no longer safe or possible despite home care and other support services. This may be due to reduced functional ability, illness or advanced memory disorder. Eligibility is always determined through an individual assessment of service needs.

We are happy to help you move forward
1

Contact service guidance

Contact the wellbeing services county’s guidance service for older people and explain the situation. A family member may also help make contact.

2

Request an assessment

The wellbeing services county assesses the person’s functional ability, need for assistance and whether living at home remains safe.

3

Decision and next step

After the assessment, the county issues a written decision. A place may be arranged by the county or with a service voucher.

SERVICE VOUCHER

Client fees for 24-hour residential care

A service voucher allows support granted by the wellbeing services county to be used for residential care at Aurora Care. The client pays the part of the price not covered by the voucher.

Read more about how the costs are calculated
01

Value of the service voucher

The wellbeing services county determines the value of the voucher individually. The value is stated in the decision issued to the client.

02

Client’s co-payment

The client pays the part of Aurora Care’s price that is not covered by the service voucher. The co-payment therefore depends on the voucher value and the applicable service price.

03

Other costs

In addition to the co-payment, costs such as rent, meals, medicines and other personal expenses may apply. The service voucher decision and the county’s rulebook determine what the voucher covers.

The exact costs are set out in the service voucher decision, Aurora Care’s pricing information and the tenancy agreement.

02 / DAHLIA DAY ACTIVITIES

More to enjoy
in your day.

Meet others, take part in activities and enjoy spending time together. Dahlia is for older people living at home who need support to lead an active and social everyday life.

Activities may include singing, memory exercises, quizzes and conversation, with lunch and coffee served during the day.

SERVICE VOUCHER

Day activities with a service voucher

Dahlia day activities can be accessed with a service voucher once the Wellbeing Services County of Ostrobothnia has assessed the need and granted the service.

Read more about the service voucher
01

Assessment and decision

A service counsellor assesses the need and decides on the voucher. It is granted for a defined period and the need is reviewed.

02

Choosing a provider

The voucher allows the client to choose a provider approved by the wellbeing services county, such as Dahlia when the service is included in the decision.

03

Fee and included services

The voucher value, any co-payment and what is included are stated in the county’s decision and terms. We are happy to help review the details.
