Positia - Welfare and Human Functioning services

A wide range of welfare services

Positia is Metropolia’s educational research and service centre for welfare and human functioning.

Our students provide the services under supervision, tailored to our clients’ individual needs; no referral from a doctor is required. Our clients comprise individuals of different ages, businesses and institutions. In addition to therapy and treatment, we also offer counselling, guidance and education to individuals and groups. Health and human wellbeing services to work communities and the elderly are always planned in advance together with our clients. Positia’s strength in client service lies in multiprofessional student teams for the client’s best. _ is means that we can provide genuine overall care for the client, whether it is in assessing the situation, in therapy or follow-up.

The services at Positia are carried out by students, and they rely on high-quality research and teaching work. We welcome you as our client!
