"Handicap without Handicap" - The Project
Based on the ideal of a holistic approach to health and wellness the project aims at providing young handicapped people with the necessary skills for a later career. They receive special training according to their particular needs and a profound education to obtain the best as possible preparation for the future. When focusing on the skills needed on today's job market we support them in the process of acquiring self-responsibility and the skills to manage their daily routines independently.
At the same time, the project attempts to have the youngsters be integrated on the work level as well as on the social level; thus to make sure they can adjust and find their way on the labour market.
Medical & Psycological Care
The children and teenager are in need of diverse medical care. Parents often hand over responsibility for the specific care of their children when they have them live within the walls of a specific institution. Under the term 'medical care' we understand the coordination of the entire service, immediate measures to respond to injuries at the work place, as well as health care and managing insurance matters.
Furthermore, the programme provides the children and teenagers with permanent psychological care throughout their entire time of stay.
Evaluation
Participants are bound to attend an evaluation check at the beginning and at the end of their educational program; thus interactive parameters can be identified and analysed. These parameters show how special treatments and the provision of health promotion facilities aid improvement.
