As part of the Pflegeschätze project, the Pflegeschatz team at Munich University of Applied Sciences is investigating the effects of the Pflegeschatz surveys and workshops on the individually perceived quality of life of parents and self-organized caregivers (sP). Scientifically verified and internationally recognized tests are used, which also reliably measure influencing factors such as stress.

You are familiar with life with children who have increased support needs?

All parents and relatives who care for a child with increased support needs (regardless of the cause) compared to children of the same age can participate. It is initially irrelevant whether the person is familiar with the project or has already participated in a PS survey.

Participating in the study

Send a short message saying “I want to participate in the study” to: pflegeschaetze-fk11@hm.edu.

We will then send you a personal link to the survey.

How long does the survey take and is there anything else to do afterwards?

The questionnaire takes about 15 minutes to complete. It can be filled out conveniently on your cell phone or PC and submitted with a single click. You can also interrupt the survey at any time and finish it later.

If you participated in a PS survey after the first survey, we ask you to fill out the questionnaire again. This will allow us to examine the effect of a moderated exchange on caregiving treasures (before-and-after comparison).

Why are we doing this?

We want to draw attention to the situation of caregiving families and improve it. That is why we want to know how you are doing and how participating in individual surveys and workshops on finding caregiving treasures affects your well-being. The results of the study will help us to argue effectively in socio-political discussions and, if necessary, to ensure that caregiving treasure surveys continue to be funded in the future. The more people participate in our study, the more meaningful the results will be and the more we can achieve.
