Health or help needed?

The municipality can help you find the right Health. You can contact staff at the Center for Social Participation (CMD) to do this. They will think with you about how to address your problem.

Solutions are different for everyone, because every person and situation is different. We will meet with you to look at your situation, question and possible solutions together. The CMD can be reached at: 040-283 16 75.

The CMD has an overview of all parties who can provide support. They will help you find the party that can best assist you.

Independent client support

If you would like to have someone support you in this process, but have no one in your area, or if you would like an independent party to be there, you can request support from a client support person. A client supporter is an independent person who supports you with your care request and who looks with you at the decision the CMD makes. 

The client support person is there for you, thinks with you and can give you free advice. The client support person can accompany you to the interview or be at your home when an interview takes place. You can always bring someone else along to the interview, such as a family member, friend, neighbor or trusted person. Client support is free of charge. 

What can the client advocate do for you?

  • Provide short-term assistance in applying for Health and support.
  • Working with you to find out what your questions and wishes are and helping you put them into words.
  • Going along with interviews at organizations or at the municipality.
  • Explaining how an application proceeds.
  • Helping you make your own choices.
  • Thinking along and looking for solutions with people in your own community.
  • Thinking along and looking for opportunities in the neighborhood.
  • Participate when you disagree with the Health or support you receive.
