Livsglede for the elderly Trondheim is a non-profit foundation that works to create meaningful everyday lives for the elderly. The foundation is part of a national movement that focuses on improving care for the elderly through various concepts and initiatives. One of the central initiatives is Livsgledehjem, a certification scheme for institutions for the elderly that emphasizes activities and community for the residents.
In addition to the certification of nursing homes, Livsglede for the elderly Trondheim offers individual activities for the elderly, as well as cooperation with livsglede kindergartens and livsglede schools. These institutions participate in well-being-creating activities that promote golden generation meetings and mutual learning. The foundation also engages zealots who organize events in the local environment, with the aim of increasing the quality of life, activity and social inclusion among the elderly.
