An evening for a quiet, important topic: NOCA presents research close to everyday life
The online presentation of the NOCA research project focuses on people who accompany severely ill individuals not as relatives, but as friends or neighbors. On June 25, 2026, the Medical University of Hanover, together with the University Hospital Erlangen, invites you to a public Zoom event. Participation is free and does not require registration.

What this evening is about
The focus will be on the experiences, needs, and contributions of non-related caregivers in the care of severely ill people. The researchers will show what forms of emotional and practical support arise in everyday life, where the challenges lie, and what information, advice, and formats for exchange are particularly needed by those affected. The format combines scientific expertise with an immediate view of lived care.

Why this online event resonates
NOCA makes visible how much organization, time, and emotional stability are involved in this role. The results suggest that many participants experience their involvement as meaningful and enriching, but at the same time wish for more self-care and structured support. This is where the special event atmosphere lies: professionally grounded, close to real-life situations, and with palpable relevance for practice, science, and the public.

Online, open, and directly accessible
The event will take place via Zoom and is aimed at interested individuals from science, care, and the public. No registration is required. This creates a low-threshold access to a topic that is becoming increasingly important in palliative care and family-oriented support.

Conclusion
This project presentation offers a concentrated view of care beyond classical role models. Those who wish to understand how circles of friends and neighborhoods support severely ill people in everyday life will gain well-founded insights and concrete impulses here. An evening that is professionally convincing and humanly resonates – it is worth being there live.
