Fondation Clariane - Aimer soigner

The Clariane Foundation is a corporate foundation, a non-profit organization of general interest, dedicated to the theme of “Enjoy caring” since 2023. It is dedicated to carers and the care professions by taking action in three key areas: the health and well-being of caregivers, attractiveness and recognition of care professions, the sense of care.

To this end, the Clariane Foundation conducts studies and research, organises events and develops prevention and communication initiatives in partnership with other organisations.

Over the next three years, we will strive to give a voice to caregivers.

Korian Stiftung für Pflege und würdevolles Altern in Germany

Korian Stiftung für Pflege und würdevolles Altern

Working with the Korian Foundation for Care and Aging with Dignity (Korian Stiftung für Pflege und würdevolles Altern in Germany), Korian Germany will extend its social commitment and ensure high-quality care and aging with dignity.

The aim of the Foundation is to support innovative projects and initiatives in the field of care for the elderly and in the health care sector in general. This includes the promotion of research in the fields of nursing, geriatrics and medicine as well as the training and further education of caring staff. Furthermore, vulnerable people are to be supported in having access to adequate care and nursing.

The Foundation’s work will primarily focus on nursing staff. Improving their working conditions and the overall image of the care sector are central issues of the Foundation.

In addition to carers, the Korian Foundation also supports family members of people in need of care. Working in the home’s advisory boards, the family members focus on the interests of their relatives and are therefore an important factor in the wellbeing of the residents and for ensuring high-quality care. Moreover, families who themselves provide care at home or make use of outpatient care services are also supported by the Foundation.

Good working conditions for carers are an essential prerequiste for guaranteeing a good life for the elderly.
