Work with the elderly

Head of Elderly Work Department
Dr. Volker Cihlar

The Department for Work with the Elderly takes care of the diverse municipal tasks and services relating to the various life situations of older Wiesbaden citizens.

You will find four different areas of expertise in our department:

  • Advice centers for independent living in old age:
    Our specialized social service informs and advises all Wiesbaden citizens and their relatives individually, close to home and free of charge on all issues relating to ageing.
  • GereNetz office:
    Cooperation and coordination is an important building block in order to be able to fulfill the diverse tasks. For this reason, many Wiesbaden institutions working with the elderly and in the health sector have joined forces in our networks to work together on issues for older people in Wiesbaden.
  • Social and cultural activities and senior citizens' meetings:
    From bus excursions and open meetings to cultural events and the internet café, the open work with the elderly offers many different activities to experience community.
  • Residential facilities for the elderly:
    The rental office is the point of contact for renting age-appropriate apartments in currently eleven senior housing complexes in the Wiesbaden city area. Most of the apartments are subject to price restrictions.

Take a look at our offers under the "Services" tab.
