Oulun Hyvinvointi ry provides rehabilitative work activities at the Höyhtyä mall. They are part of the Höyhtyä area communal activities. Rehabilitative work emphasizes working together, being part of the community, as well as strengthening your own wellbeing and agency through productive tasks and projects aiding the community's wellbeing. In addition to work activity, the activities include exercising together, group guidance for improving everyday lifestyle skills and readiness for employment, as well as individual social guidance, including orientation for employment and education. Oulun Hyvinvointi ry also supports the wellbeing and communality of residents, providing various aids for the elderly by organizing incentive clubs and events.
You can apply to rehabilitative work activity through the wellbeing services county of North Ostrobothnia (Pohde). You can inquire about available room for new clients by calling us at 044 438 6800.
The group helps the area's elderly people with everyday tasks, such as grocery shopping and yard work. The group also functions as helpers for outdoors activities with the area's care units and the elderly living at home. Through these tasks the workers get to know how to work with the elderly and familiarize themselves with home service tasks.
Supervisor: Hilkka Korhonen
The group provides weekly active guidance projects, exercise and incentive moments for children and elderly people, and participates in the organization of the community's local events, such as nature trails, seasonal events and children's exercise events.
Supervisor: Tommi Villa
The group's activities combine craftmanship, culture, and wellness. Workers in the group can fulfill their own craftmanship and participate in projects aiding the community's wellbeing. Your own wellness and mindfulness can be strengthened by being in nature, having cultural visits, and making communal art.
Supervisor: Marjo Piippola
