All persons desire to remain independent in old age. However, physical or mental illnesses cause many persons to rely on assistance. The v. Bodelschwingh Foundation Bethel assures that elderly persons who require help can lead their lives in dignity via the wide diversity of services offered by our foundations.

Bethel’s services in home nursing care and support and its day and short-term care facilities lend support to elderly individuals so that they can live in their own homes or in their families although they require assistance. If home care is no longer possible with professional support, then affected persons can find a new home in one of Bethel’s retirement homes which offer them safety and security.

Our employees are guided by Christian faith in their service for elderly persons. They guarantee highly qualified nursing care and simultaneously support and assist the persons entrusted to them in such a way that they can participate in community life and remain as independent as possible.

Bethel Senior Citizens Assistance is represented by facilities and services located in the federal states of North Rhine-Westphalia, Lower Saxony, Bremen, Berlin and Brandenburg.
