My facility

This is the facility I was placed at!

None of the website is in english, but you can still check out pictures of it. I'm pretty anxious to see what it's like. This is what my country coordinator has told me about it so far...

"The center of Evangelical Lutheran Diakonia is situated in Trencin county. And was established in September 1996, with capacity of 17 clients and 9 employees. In 2005 the capacity was enlarged at the upper parts of the centre and finished at the same year, so first clients could move in in December. At the present time capacity of the center is 40 clients, for them the center provides a social welfare for pensioners. Most of them are stays 24/7 at the center, where they're having board and lodging, medical care, rehabilitation /if needed/, pedicure, hairdresser, massage, counseling, pastoral care, and other free time activities… Pastoral care is done by Mr. Lubomir Marcina, every Sunday at 11.00 a.m. , Marcel Brece is a director of the center, As I mentioned before, capacity is 40 beds, there are 19 employees at the center and 6 volunteers, opening hours for visitors are from 1 – 5 p.m."
