Own provision
Anyone can find themselves in a situation where they can no longer manage important matters themselves due to an accident, illness or old age. You should therefore make provisions for a self-determined lifestyle in good time.
With the help of various instruments, you can make arrangements for a situation in which you are no longer able to act independently, including the care directive, the health care proxy and the living will. The Federal Ministry of Justice
offers extensive information and forms for making your own provisions.
Emergency folder of the University of Siegen
You can use the emergency folder to prepare for an emergency. It can be used to compile all the necessary personal information and documents. This gives you and your relatives a comprehensive overview of your most important personal documents. Because in an emergency, there is usually no time or nerves to look for these things.
The emergency folder
of the berufundfamilie Service GmBH for the University of Siegen is barrier-free and can be edited interactively.
