EMMA offers mothers or fathers of children with impairments the opportunity to go on a health cure together with their children.

During the day, when the mother or father is undergoing the therapies, Caritas caregivers take care of the children according to their needs. The health cure stay can be taken up by a parent who cares for a child with impairment from the age of 2, for whom increased family allowance is received and who is insured with ÖGK.

You can find more information on the page of the Austrian Health Insurance Fund.
