RehaAktiv@home

People with health limitations who can no longer pursue their previous profession need specific support in their career reorientation.

This is where Reha Aktiv @home comes in. The program combines online classes from home with in-person sessions at one of our locations and company internships. The focus is on integration into the primary labor market, taking into account individual skills, experience, and health conditions.

An interdisciplinary team of social workers, psychologists and lecturers accompanies the participants throughout the entire program and provides them with advice and support.

Target audience

• People with health limitations, whether mental and/or physical, who need support with their professional reintegration
• People for whom regular participation in an in-person event is difficult, for example due to limited mobility, a rural living situation, health limitations or family care responsibilities.
• People for whom traditional retraining or further education is not practical or possible

Participation requirements

Approval of participation by the German Federal Pension Insurance Fund within the framework of benefits for participation in working life.

A stable internet connection at home is required for the online phase. A laptop with the necessary accessories will be provided on loan. Technical training will take place at the beginning of the course.

Goals

Integration of participants into the primary labor market through the development and implementation of individual, needs-based strategies.

Together we develop a realistic career perspective that fits personal skills, experience and health requirements and takes into account the opportunities of the job market.
