Summary
Have fun outside together!!Detailed description
The residents of residential care center De Wartburg really want to go outside. Even if it is sometimes a bit cold, we pack a lot! On Tuesday afternoons (on even weeks) there is a walking association "around the block". Depending on the number of volunteers, the number of residents will be included. Would you like to give a resident a nice afternoon once every 2 weeks by means of a walk combined with a chat?

About AxionContinu locatie De Wartburg
Residential care center De Wartburg is located on the edge of the Utrecht district of Oog in Al, in a park-like environment and yet in the middle of the city. Seniors live here with all the support they need, now or in the future. There are different forms of living. The house exudes warmth, openness and respect for everyone's dignity.
The Wartburg has a special history that dates back to the beginning of the nineteenth century. At the time, the Lutheran Reverend Zimmermann took the lead in establishing a home for orphans and elderly people. This Orphan, Old Men and Women House was opened in 1842 at the Utrecht Domplein.
Exactly one hundred years after the opening of the orphanage, the first residents moved into rest home De Wartburg Oog in Al. That eventually became the residential care center it is today. Due to its Lutheran origins, De Wartburg has a beautiful chapel, where a service is still celebrated every Sunday morning. Many residents and people from outside attend it.
Today De Wartburg is a general residential care center, where all denominations are welcome. The special new building is smoothly connected with the historic, characteristic white building in which Zorghotel De Wartburg is located.
The welfare employees provide a varied range of activities in collaboration with colleagues and volunteers. These activities take place in the living room or in the central areas such as De Palas, Domplein or outside the location. Every week you can participate in needlework and board games, creative and musical activities and cooking and baking activities. Movement is important, it reduces restlessness, provides a pleasant feeling and keeps the muscles and joints loose. Several times a week there are various exercise activities such as a course ball and Tai chi. There is something for everyone.
