Relief for family caregivers
Family caregivers of people with dementia are often on duty around the clock. Hourly care from DSK+ gives you regular breaks — for appointments, rest, or simply a clear head.
Hourly care at home
Dementia care in Berlin-Wilmersdorf — relief for you, familiarity for your relative.
Caring for someone with dementia is often a constant strain for family members. DSK+ provides hourly care at home — funded through the relief amount under §45b SGB XI and, depending on the care level, additional care allowances in kind. Our team also speaks Russian and Turkish, so your relative feels safe and understood.
What dementia care means
Time for your relative – breathing room for you
Funding explained
Care is billed through the monthly relief amount under §45b SGB XI, which is available to everyone with a recognised care level. Care allowances in kind can also be used in addition, depending on the care level. We clarify exactly what applies to your situation.
A familiar language
People with dementia often mentally return to their native language, even after speaking German well for years. Our carers speak Russian and Turkish alongside German, creating genuine familiarity.
Good to know
How DSK+ shapes the care
Every dementia condition is different. That's why our carers shape the shared time individually: conversations, walks, memory exercises, music, or simply calm companionship — whatever suits your relative best. Care takes place in familiar home surroundings, which is especially important for orientation and a sense of safety with dementia.
We clarify in advance with you, and with the care insurance if needed, how the relief amount and any available care allowances in kind can be used for your situation. Billing runs directly between DSK+ and the care insurance.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions – our answers
How is dementia care funded?
Hourly dementia care can be billed through the monthly relief amount under §45b SGB XI, which is available to everyone with a recognised care level. Depending on the care level, care allowances in kind can also be used in addition. We check what is possible for your specific case.
Does my relative need a care level?
A recognised care level is required to fund the service through the relief amount. If a care level has not yet been assigned, we also support you with the application.
What does a care session look like?
Our carers come to your home and shape the time individually: conversations, walks, memory exercises, or simply familiar companionship. Your relative stays in their accustomed surroundings.
Why does language matter so much with dementia?
Many people with dementia mentally return to their native language, even after speaking German well for years. That's why we also provide care in Russian and Turkish — familiar words create a sense of safety and trust.
How often can care take place?
We agree this together with you — from a few hours per week to regular sessions several times a week, depending on your needs and the budget available from the relief amount and care allowances in kind.
