Mobile senior services: Activities at five locations across Helsinki
Students in social and health care provide activity sessions for seniors that combine practical information with engaging themes. The sessions promote wellbeing and health, with topics such as brain health, nutrition, physical activity, or other themes based on the students’ expertise and the wishes of the participants. We also offer service counselling and guidance at each location.
You are warmly welcome to join us, enjoy refreshing activities together with others, and meet new people. All sessions are free of charge.
You can find the detailed schedule and the locations of HyMy Village’s mobile senior service through this link. The schedule for the fall will be published soon.
At Digi- & Duunikulma, we open doors to participation, learning and employment
In HyMy-kylä's low-threshold service, you will be greeted unhurriedly and expertly by the social and health students of Metropolia University of Applied Sciences. Our teachers, who are health care professionals, are responsible for the operation. Digi- and Duunikulma's operations are structured according to customers' needs. Digital participation is a multifaceted phenomenon, and confirmation requires mapping the person's current state. When examining a person's participation and employment potential, the recognition of competence, motivation and the effects of environmental factors are highlighted.
In our service offer at the moment
- Tailor-made groups and workshops that strengthen participation and employment of people in a weak labor market position
- Digital courage groups to strengthen inclusion and employment: The group's goal can be e.g. finding and expressing one's own strengths and interests. Increasing confidence in the job search and bringing out one's abilities by practicing interaction skills or strengthening the possibilities of getting a job in the form of e.g. simulated job interview workshops.
- Customized events to promote digital inclusion and employment

Customer feedback
We collect customer feedback in order to continuously develop and improve our services.
For your benefit
At HyMy Village, our main goal is to provide quality wellbeing and health services without haste and taking into account your individual situation.
Good to know
- In HyMy-Village you are a client in a learning situation where our students practice, under the supervision of teachers, in addition to their professional skills, e.g. people-centered interaction with clients.
- The research and rehabilitation plan made for you by our students is always checked and approved by the supervising teachers.
- During your visit, in addition to the corresponding student, his or her student colleagues may be involved in observing the situation.
- If you look younger than 13 years old, we will check your age, as under the age of 13 requires parental consent to participate in the activity.
Our goal is to provide you expert, flexible and personalized service without haste. Your feedback is important to us for the development of our operations and services.
