Comfort & Well-being Pack
In a nutshell
The Comfort & Well-being Pack project, led by Soins Chez Soi, aims to improve the daily lives of older adults experiencing financial hardship by providing access to essential care and services that are often unaffordable.
The context
Many older people living in precarious situations are forced to make difficult choices between essential needs such as healthcare, food, and access to basic services.
Due to financial constraints, necessary services related to hygiene, well-being, and home support are often postponed or abandoned, which can lead to a decline in quality of life, health, and self-esteem.
The project
The project offers a range of accessible services tailored to the needs of older people experiencing financial difficulties.
Services include:
- well-being services (hairdressing, beauty care, podiatry, etc.);
- home-based support (assistance, companionship, respite care, psychological support);
- support with daily living (transportation, administrative assistance, minor household repairs);
- access to equipment or services that promote independence.
The support provided is personalised to meet the specific needs of each beneficiary.
Impact
The project helps to:
- improve the well-being and quality of life of participants;
- strengthen their dignity and self-esteem;
- support independent living at home;
- prevent health deterioration caused by a lack of care.
By facilitating access to essential services, the project addresses needs that are often invisible but fundamental.
