About

Melanie Kapfer ist Ergotherapeutin und freut sich, Menschen auf ihrem Weg zu mehr Selbstständigkeit im Alltag begleiten zu dürfen. Ihr liegt es am Herzen, dass ihre Patient:innen nach einer Verletzung, Erkrankung oder anderen körperlichen oder kognitiven Einschränkung ihren Alltag wieder so selbstbestimmt wie möglich bewältigen können. Einfühlsam, geduldig und motiviert arbeitet sie gemeinsam mit ihren Patient:innen an für sie bedeutungsvollen Betätigungen – sei es im Bereich der Selbstversorgung, Freizeit oder Produktivität – immer mit dem Ziel: mehr Lebensqualität im Alltag.

Das Interesse und Engagement von Melanie für die Arbeit mit Menschen zeigte sich bereits früh während ihres Freiwilligen Sozialen Jahres in einem Pflegeheim. Dort sammelte sie wertvolle Erfahrungen, insbesondere im Umgang mit Menschen mit Demenz. Die Arbeit mit älteren Menschen und Menschen mit Demenz erfüllt sie bis heute besonders.

Im Laufe ihres Ergotherapie-Studiums legte Melanie gezielt Schwerpunkte auf die Fachbereiche Neurologie und Geriatrie. Durch Auslandserfahrungen während des Studiums sowie durch ihre Tätigkeiten in Pflegeheimen, der (akut-)neurologischen Kurz- und Langzeitversorgung und in neurologischen sowie onkologischen Rehabilitationszentren verfügt sie über ein breites Spektrum an Wissen und Erfahrungen.

Besonders wichtig ist es ihr, klient:innenzentrierte Ergotherapie anzubieten, um individuelle Ziele zu erarbeiten, abgestimmte Lösungen zu entwickeln und so den persönlichen Alltag ihrer Patient:innen nachhaltig zu verbessern.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”

— Frau Melanie Kapfer
