CDU official advocates for expansion of elderly care centers in Harburg region
In the heart of Hamburg, the Harburg district is experiencing a significant demographic shift, with an increasing number of elderly residents. This trend has prompted concerns from local representative André Trepoll, a member of the CDU party, who has been advocating for the expansion of eldercare facilities in the district.
The expansion of care facilities and day care options in Harburg is in response to this demographic shift. Currently, there are three day care facilities in the district, offering a total of 58 places. However, the actual occupancy rate of these facilities remains unknown.
André Trepoll is particularly concerned about the lack of full-time care facilities in Harburg. He believes that the district needs to urgently increase its capacity for residential eldercare homes and day care centers. These facilities would offer social activities and respite care, helping elderly residents to maintain their independence and quality of life.
In addition to day care facilities, outpatient and mobile care services are crucial for supporting aging in place. Harburg is currently home to 28 home care services licensed under the Eleventh Book of Social Security Code (SGB XI).
Besides eldercare facilities, the Harburg district office supports other facilities for the leisure activities of elderly people, including five senior centers, neighborhood cultural centers, and community centers.
Despite these efforts, no recent public information about Harburg's expansion plans for full-time care facilities and day care options is available. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of Harburg's current and future expansions in eldercare facilities, consulting official Hamburg city social services websites, local government announcements, or contacting local care provider associations would be required.
As the population of Harburg continues to age, it is essential that the district addresses the growing demand for eldercare services to ensure the well-being of its elderly residents. With ongoing advocacy from representatives like André Trepoll, it is hoped that Harburg will continue to invest in and expand its eldercare infrastructure.

Expansion plans for full-time care facilities and day care options in Harburg remain undefined, necessitating consultation of official Hamburg city social services websites, local government announcements, or contacting care provider associations. As the district focuses on the health-and-wellness of aging residents, it is crucial to enhance resources in other areas such as social activities and outpatient care, as advocated by André Trepoll.
