Domov Sue Ryder
Domov Sue Ryder (Sue Ryder Home) in Prague is a residential care home for elderly people, which opened in 2000. It is ranked as one of Prague’s leading providers of residential care and is seen as a model of national care standards. It welcomes individuals from across the Czech Republic, especially veterans of World War II and Holocaust survivors.
Who do we help?
Domov Sue Ryder has a loving and peaceful environment, providing its clients with comprehensive nursing and social care. The care given seeks to respect the uniqueness of every individual client to achieve a high quality of life.
How do we work?
In the public areas of the Domov, regular cultural and educational events take place both for clients and for visitors. There is the Michelský dvůr restaurant and a charity shop, which allows the Domov to open itself up to the public and become a meeting place for all generations. These extra activities also raise funds which help support the Domov’s main activity of providing care to seniors.
Why support us?
According to Alzheimer Europe there are between 98,000 and 105,000 people with dementia in the Czech Republic, a number which has doubled since 1960, and yet there is currently no specialist service in Prague.
Our future plans
A future priority is to raise €400,000 to complete the home’s Dementia Unit. This will be the first such unit in the Czech Republic, providing a 20-bed specialist residential care service for people with a range of neurological conditions, particularly Alzheimer’s disease.
