What this service does for you
If you live in the city of Bern and can no longer manage financially after a stroke, this is the right place for you. The Sozialdienst checks if you are entitled to financial social assistance and helps you fill out the applications. This often becomes important a few months after the event, when daily allowances end or an IV-Rente has not yet been decided. Family members can also come on their own if they look after the finances of an affected person.
