Prague 5: Raudnitz House will welcome the first senior tenants in the autumn
“Since childhood, we have been surrounded, motivated and influenced by the environment in which we live. As an adult, you need to create the conditions for your lifestyle and design. So that we like to enrich our partners or family life with the imprint we are provided with from our youth, and thus we influence our living and coexistence, “says councilor JUDr. Petr Lachnit.
And it is only in the post-productive age that we often become aware of and appreciate an oasis of peace and security, the motto of living, of course, if we are lucky and live well. Thus, the housing cycle also has its order and the time in it is relatively relentless. Therefore, the phenomenon of housing becomes a key need, especially at the age when the first health problems are heard, there is a risk of self-sufficiency or a feeling of loneliness, loss of life partner, family deficit, and the solution of apartment accessibility. Then we are looking for a sense of security, security, support and the need for social inclusion, and last but not least, a good, supportive neighborhood.

In Prague, in cooperation with the Center for Social and Nursing Assistance in Prague 5, po (hereinafter referred to as CSOP), in 2014 it acquired and gradually reconstructed one of the most beautiful houses right in the center of Smíchov, near Arbesova náměstí, at Zubatého Street 10. This house is surrounded by and a rich history, which dates back to the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, when there was a manor house with the estates Prstenka and Maxmiliánka. In 1891, the location of Zubatého and Arbesova náměstí streets became the most beautiful square in Smíchov. This house is used for comfortable senior living with a range of care and other support services.

Special-purpose flats do not replace hospital facilities or residential social services (eg a home for the elderly or a home with a special regime). On the contrary, only independent living with the support and use of care services, so that seniors can stay as long as possible in a natural home environment, which has a positive effect on their quality of life. Seniors, if their health and personal situation allow it, prefer independent living with the use of other support services to permanent residential facilities.
In the apartments of special purpose, which are small (1 + 0.1 + kk, 2 + kk), there is a kitchen with accessories, in the hallway there are built-in wardrobes and a specially adapted shower. The great advantage of this form of housing is that special purpose apartments are furnished by the tenants with their own furniture and other furnishing items. The lease agreement for special-purpose flats is not transferable to another person or persons whose situation is covered by the relevant provisions of the Civil Code. Each tenant uses the apartment on the basis of a rental relationship under the conditions defined in the lease agreement. If the applicant owns pets, a dog or cat, etc., he can take it with him, which is very important for such a person. Exactly the day when your residents of special purpose, who are also clients of care services, can use the contracted care procedures. On behalf of clients of the care service, if necessary, they monitor a social worker who helps them to deal with various matters and to advise them in solving difficult situations.

The chateau called Raudnitz House is located on the site of a fortress, founded in 1571 by Jan Kutovec of Úraz. In 1623 the building was bought by Pavel Michna from Vacínov. His son then got into debt and Hlubočepy was pledged by the Jesuits, who in 1669 rebuilt the building into a chateau. During its existence, it changed the form, scope and use. Its older northern part served from the end of the 18th century as a manor house, after reconstruction in the 1840s as a private country residence in the late Classicist style.
