The
The Haus am Stadtwald in Bonn is a specialized nursing and therapeutic facility that focuses on the care of severely dependent younger adults. The facility accommodates up to 48 residents and was opened in 2008 to provide adequate care for people who can no longer live in their previous homes due to accidents or serious illnesses[1][4].
The mission of the Haus am Stadtwald is based on a holistic service for people in need. The facility sees itself as a diaconal institution that accepts the person in their entirety and respects their needs. The ethical demand "Living as Being for Others" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer is the guiding principle of the work[2].
Although specific sustainability goals are not explicitly mentioned, the Haus am Stadtwald places great importance on integrating residents into community life and promoting their social bonds. This is achieved through regular group activities and the involvement of relatives and volunteers[2]. Close cooperation with local communities and pastoral care are also important components of the work[2].
The Haus am Stadtwald is part of the Evangelische Axenfeld Gesellschaft and is represented at the state level by the Diakonie Rheinland-Westfalen-Lippe[1]. The facility is located in an attractive residential area of Bonn, surrounded by a large garden and near the Kottenforst, providing a natural environment for the residents[1].
