These are the guidelines for our work
Whenever a child gets this sick, the entire family is always affected - and all of their plans have to change.
Projects and offerings of the Björn Schulz Foundation
About 50,000 children and youths suffer from life-shortening illnesses in Germany. Every year, between 3,000 and 5,000 of them die.
Most of them and their families want to spend as much of the time left to them possible in their familiar home setting, not in a clinic.
Children, youths and young adults suffering from life-shortening illnesses have no hope of improvement once they get their diagnosis and usually die before reaching adulthood. We accompany them from that point onward.
The Björn Schulz Foundation was founded to lend aid to these children and youths - as well as their families - in a comprehensive and professional way, always at their side and with a variety of ambulatory and stationary programs.
- The Sonnenhof - a hospice for children, youths and young adults
- Ambulatory children's hospice service (Education and organization of voluntary family assistants for children and youths)
- Social and medical continuing care
- Personal ambulatory care
- Specialized ambulatory pediatric palliative care (SAPV-K)
- Family support services
- Programs for siblings
- Grief programs for parents, siblings, day care centers and schools
- Two centers for continuing care, the Rosemarie Fuchs House on the Baltic Sea and the Iremngard-Hof at Chiemsee
- An academy for further and continuing education
