Berlin mobility assistance services
The Berlin mobility assistance services have been in existence since 1988. They are a service provided by the outpatient elderly care service of the state of Berlin. They are available at 13 locations in all districts of Berlin.
Every year, Mobidienste provides over 300,000 hours of escort services for Berlin residents aged 60 and over. They help people who can no longer get out of the house on their own. Under the motto: "Life happens outside, we take you there", they accompany people to shopping trips, events, meetings with relatives or simply for a walk, for example.
The aim is to maintain the clients' independence and enable social participation. This helps to prevent nursing home stays and care.
The mobility assistance services also include wheelchair pushing services, assistance for the blind and stair transportation. The employees are carefully prepared for their responsible tasks. The work is carried out on the basis of quality criteria.
The escorts are provided on a weekly basis. They are free of charge - apart from an administration fee.
