GiA 65+ – aufsuchende Akutbehandlung zuhause (Home Treatment)
Checked in August 2026
What this service does for you
Instead of taking an older person to a clinic, the GiA 65+ treatment team comes to their home: doctors, nurses, and therapists visit people aged 65 and older in an acute psychiatric crisis every day, including on weekends. This can be important for very elderly stroke patients who find it hard to move to a clinic or who cope better with depression in their familiar surroundings. Relatives are actively involved. The exact service area (only Lucerne or also Obwalden/Nidwalden) is not clearly stated on the website.
