Trainingnursing and care staff. Promoting mobility in a targeted manner.
For the second time, our G-WEG instructor, Meggi Wiesemann, visited the Agaplesion Heimathaus in Darmstadt.
The focus was on G-WEG refresher training and rollator training for staff from all HDV facilities in Bickenbach, Lampertheim, Darmstadt, Fürth, Baunatal, and Worms.
The rollator training focused in particular on the methodological design of group activities:
How can caregivers guide residents step by step toward using the rollator safely?
How can exercises be structured effectively, adapted to different skill levels, and made varied?
The goal is to equip employees with specific methods and greater confidence in applying them in their day-to-day nursing practice.
A total of 23 participants practiced using the rollator. They practiced walking with the rollator over obstacles, along a sidewalk with a high curb, and through a slalom course.
Everyone clearly enjoyed the training session. Some were surprised, however, at how difficult it was to maintain their balance and walk safely with the rollator.
After all, effective fall prevention requires not only appropriate exercises, but also employees who know how to teach them in a targeted and safe manner.
Thank you very much for your dedication, the open dialogue, and the warm hospitality!
