Self-organised shared flats for technology-dependent people in North Rhine-Westphalia
Project overview
The Ministry commissioned the School of Nursing Science to investigate the following question:
"To compile an overview of the number of existing self-organised shared flats with outpatient nursing care and describe the care situation for people with respiratory support measures in North Rhine-Westphalia."
Conclusion: A total of 73 shared flats for technology-dependent people were found in North Rhine-Westphalia. Data on the composition of the residents, their underlying illnesses and their nursing care was collected quantitatively by questionnaire. In addition, 18 interviews were conducted with residents, relatives and carers.
