Farewell and new beginning: Mengkofen retirement home sets the course for the future

Mengkofen, Deutschland - On June 16, 2025, a moving celebration took place in the Mengkofen district home home to adopt the retired members of the resident. Among those present were District Administrator Werner Bumeder, the home manager Maria Huber and the manager Maria Spielberger. On this occasion, District Administrator Bumeder paid tribute to the commitment of the previous members who had campaigned for the interests of the residents. Their commitment was decisive for the trusting communication between the administration, home management and residents, such as the Dingolfing-Landau

The eliminated members were Ruth Buchner, Johann Kelter and Ernst Hemmann, although not everyone was present. In addition to the organization of events, the work of the residents' representative also includes promoting a respectful coexistence among the residents. Another important topic was the view of the upcoming developments in the retirement home, in particular the planned new building, which should ensure better living conditions. The aim is to meet the needs of the older generation and to further develop modern care and care culture.

The new resident representation was also presented: Johann Frank takes over the chair, while Elfriede Fritsch acts as deputy chair and protocol leader. The team is complemented by Otto Feldmeier, Hedwig Schlattau and Matin Knott. District Administrator Bumeder expressed his confidence that the cooperation with the new members will seamlessly build on the positive tradition.

The resident's representation has set itself the goal of promoting the self -determination of the residents. This includes the introduction of wishes and suggestions on important topics such as catering and leisure activities. The legal foundations for this are anchored in the execution regulations on the Bavarian Nursing and Living Quality Act, according to the information from Seniorenheim Mengkofen.

participation in care

Co -determination is estimated in many areas of life and is also very important in stationary care. The residents' representatives play a crucial role here by enabling residents to help shape their living conditions. This applies, among other things, the planning of the catering, the leisure activities, the house rules and the participation in the event of a fee increase, as on the website [nursing authority] (https://www.pflegebollmaechtte.de/selbstwewusche-pflegebeduerftigen-dails/mitstunge-in-der-pflege-residents' representative.

Regular communication between the resident representation and facility management is essential for securing and improving quality standards in long -term care facilities. However, the residents often report difficulties to receive the necessary recognition on site. It is all the more important that self -determination and personal responsibility is also preserved in care facilities.

Overall, the Mengkofen district senior home looks with a positive perspective into the future, based on the commitment of the new residents' representation and the support from the home management and the administration.
