Special housing types for the elderly (SoL)

Special housing types are housing with apartments for the elderly who need special support in the form of service and care.

Residents must receive individually adapted support, service and care, so that they can live as independently and with as much dignity as possible.

There must be a supervisor for the service, who is responsible for the daily work and for ensuring that the service is conducted with good quality and provides good care.
