SPITEX AM PULS

Our Spitex Association is a politically and religiously independent association.

We are a non-profit organization. It promotes living at home in cooperation with clients, the elderly, relatives, doctors, social services, and other organizations. The Spitex association works on behalf of the contracting municipalities. The services to be provided are defined in service agreements. The service covers the municipalities of Villmergen (Hilfikon), Dottikon, Büttikon, Uezwil, and Hägglingen.

Home help and care is an important and recognized pillar of healthcare. Residents of all ages can count on professional and situation-appropriate Spitex services in acute and long-term situations if necessary:

• when the client's self-help is no longer sufficient
• when help from relatives or neighbors is no longer sufficient or needs to be supplemented
• if there is no social environment

The Spitex organization provides its services in accordance with legal requirements under the responsibility of the municipalities.
