The fact that the topic of promoting physical activity in long-term care is becoming increasingly important is now also reflected in significant media coverage:
Vincentz Verlag is dedicating an article to the collaboration between compassio and G-WEG GmbH in its renowned professional journal Altenpflege (10/25, Vincentz Network, Hanover).
With this, one of Germany's largest nursing trade publications is shining a spotlight on a project that demonstrates how innovative training concepts can enrich both daily nursing practice and quality of life.
The focus is on the G-WEG training and prevention program, which integrates physical activity into everyday life in a playful way. On a six-meter-long training mat, physical exercises are combined with tasks that mirror everyday life—sometimes “serving sandwiches,” other times “balancing over curbs.”
What looks lighthearted and cheerful has a tangible impact:
Residents regain a sense of security, confidence, and joy in movement. Teams experience how training together strengthens their bonds.
Exercise becomes a unifying experience—for everyone involved.
All of this is accompanied by a comprehensive training program for employees, which ensures that the promotion of physical activity remains firmly embedded in nursing practice over the long term.
The fact that the journal *Altenpflege* devotes so much space to this approach underscores the relevance of the topic—and the impact of the partnership between compassio and G-WEG as an example of care innovation in action.
Conclusion: An article that shows how care can shape the future—moving, humane, and full of joie de vivre.
