What is your future vision of
the care sector in Bielefeld?

 

The topic of care affects us all, e.g., as relatives of those receiving care, as volunteers, or as people who themselves will one day be cared for. There is hardly a life situation in which we do not have direct or indirect contact with this topic.

Care is very diverse: It can take place at home, in assisted living facilities or in a nursing home. In addition, there are aspects such as new technologies or digitization. In addition, many of us are familiar with the political discussion on care.

But how do we actually envision care in the future? What is important to us and what ideas do we have for shaping it? And if we look at our city: How is care in Bielefeld actually positioned? Where is there potential for development?  Take the opportunity now and actively shape the discussion about the care of the future in Bielefeld by taking part in the survey!

What is the survey about?

How would you like to be cared for in the future and how do you envision care in the future? This question is the focus of the survey.

Care is one of the most important issues of the future in our society today. We are all familiar with the political discussion on this. However, many aspects of care can be shaped locally, i.e. in our city and on site. In order to be able to shape the care of the future in Bielefeld, the perspective of the people of Bielefeld is therefore of elementary importance - in other words, your opinion.

The survey focuses on very important aspects of care, e.g.

  • How do we imagine to age in dignity?
  • Under what conditions can we imagine being cared for in a nursing home?
  • How can the care of relatives be supported in the best possible way?
  • How can voluntary work in the area of care be strengthened?
  • What do we as citizens think about the use of technology and digitization in care?
  • and much more.

The survey is thus intended to determine the Bielefelders' idea of the care of the future in our city and to start a broad social debate on this in Bielefeld. This debate is expected to generate new impulses for the care of the future in Bielefeld.

For the first time, the citizens of a city will be asked directly about their ideas and perceptions - also about the local design of care with a view to their own city. The urban society is thus called upon to actively shape the discussion on the future of care in Bielefeld.

Who is involved?
