Service, health, and care

Personal care & high quality of life

We take care of everything else – so you can devote yourself entirely to life. Service that takes the pressure off without being intrusive.

Some things in life should just be allowed to happen. Without a to-do list, without effort, without hassle. At Downtown Residence Josefstadt, we take care of exactly what you don’t want to worry about anymore—giving you more time for what’s good for you.

Whether it’s a freshly made bed, a quick call to the concierge, a medical question, or a sympathetic ear: our team works behind the scenes to ensure that only one thing matters in the foreground—your well-being.

And because there is no “standard program” for the good life, we tailor our care to be as individual as you are. With respect, discretion, and a sense of the right balance.

Frequently asked questions about service, health, and care

Is it necessary to sign in or out when leaving the house?

No, you do not need to sign out when leaving the house. You enjoy complete privacy here and live completely independently. Of course, we would appreciate it if you would let us know if you are going away for a longer period of time.

Can I choose my doctor freely?

Of course, you are free to choose your own doctor. You can visit your trusted doctor at any time. At the same time, we work closely with the Josefstadt Primary Care Center and our in-house health center and are happy to offer you these services. If this does not meet your needs, we will of course respect your individual decision.

Is it possible to remain in the apartment even if care is required?

Moving out is generally not necessary for those who require light assistance and care. We have a competent social and care manager who considers each case individually and works with those affected to develop suitable solutions. In cooperation with professional outpatient care services, we can organize the necessary support directly in your home upon request. In addition, there is the option of 24-hour care in your apartment—however, this is at your own expense. In this way, we enable our residents to remain in their familiar surroundings for as long as possible, even as their care needs increase.

Is there someone who can look after my apartment when I’m not there, for example to collect the mail and water the plants?

Yes, our concierge and cleaning staff will be happy to take care of your apartment during your absence, including receiving mail and caring for flowers.

Is it possible to bring your own bedding?

Yes, you are welcome to bring your own bed linen and towels. However, please note that the residence’s laundry service only changes the standard linen provided, as this has been specially selected and coordinated. Personal laundry is not included in the regular service, as some fabrics are very delicate and could shrink. Therefore, these items would have to be washed separately, which would be charged individually, or you would have to wash them yourself.

What about laundry services—do you do your own laundry, or is assistance provided?

Each floor has a utility room with a washing machine, dryer, and ironing facilities available for your use free of charge. In addition, each apartment has a washing machine connection in the bathroom so that you can connect your own machine.

If you would like to completely relinquish the hassle of laundry, our housekeeper will be happy to organize a laundry service for you. Your laundry will be taken to an external cleaning company and returned to you. The costs incurred will be charged individually.
