Security, support, stimulation and activity are important basic factors for human quality of life, throughout life. In Mönsterås, prerequisites are provided for a high quality of life, considering individual requirements. For the children, day-care centres and leisure activities provide the security, playing and development possibilities while the parents are working.
Child welfare
The Child welfare is based on the employees and the parents organising groups in every geographical area. Each group is locally responsible for the child care.
The elderly
Through adequate welfare activities, the elderly may live in their own homes as long as they want. The social home service provides security, care and service. If night attention is required, this is also available.
For those wanting a home in a senior apartment, these are available in all population centres, and therapy activities, fellowship and convivial gatherings are offered in cosy community premises.
For elderly people in need of training and stimulation, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and sight and hearing advisers are available. The efforts of the rehabilitation team contribute to the quality of life of the individual.
Health Care
The health care is well developed in the municipality. You come to the health care centres in Mönsterås and Blomstermåla to consult a family doctor of your own choice. The availability of district nurses in every population center provides good continuity and security.
