The Social Support Act (Wmo) supports people in living as independently as possible and participating in society. Municipalities are responsible for the implementation of the Wmo. Support is granted based on a municipal indication.
Application at the municipality
Investigation and 'kitchen table conversation'
Granting of a Wmo indication
Support by a contracted provider, such as Vitraa
All three are intended for adults (18+) with a Wmo indication. They differ mainly in living situation and in the intensity of the guidance.
Sheltered living is Wmo support for adults (18+) who cannot live independently and need a safe living environment with guidance nearby. The guidance is aimed at stability, structure, and increasing independence.
Protected living at home is Wmo support for adults (18+) who live independently but need intensive guidance to sustain this. The guidance takes place in the home situation and is aimed at preventing relapse and maintaining independence.
Ambulatory guidance, also known as individual guidance, is Wmo support for adults (18+) who need support with daily functioning while living independently.
Within the Wmo, Vitraa offers support that matches the client's personal situation and request for help.
