Who makes decisions when I can no longer do so? – Living wills and powers of attorney explained simply
When family members suddenly have to make health-related decisions for a loved one, they are often under enormous pressure – especially if there are no written arrangements. This online resource provides an overview of the importance of living wills and powers of attorney and shows how family members can be involved in discussions about wishes and values in a timely manner. The goal is to create clarity in an emergency and to distribute responsibility across multiple shoulders. The acquired knowledge can also be helpful for your own future planning.

Familiencafé
'It Takes a Village'
Come along to the Family Café to find out more about the resources available to help you balance studies and childcare. Meet other university members with children and learn about the services the university offers families, as well as the university day care centre. Children are welcome!
We provide coffee, cake and stimulating conversation.
If you are interested and willing, we can offer the opportunity to use the resource tree coaching tool. This allows you to identify and visualize your own individual resources and strengths. It helps you recognize which resources are available to you to achieve your own goals and meet challenges (in the context of work-life balance).
