Planning a rehabilitation stay with PFRON funding takes a bit of time and good organization, but in return it offers a chance for real health improvement in a beautiful seaside setting. If you are thinking about a trip such as a PFRON rehabilitation stay Łeba 2026, this guide will walk you step by step through the whole process – from formalities to packing your suitcase.
1. What a PFRON stay is and who can benefit
What a PFRON rehabilitation stay is
A PFRON-funded rehabilitation stay is an organized, at least 14‑day stay combined with a rehabilitation program, therapeutic activities and rest. Its aim is to improve physical and mental fitness, as well as increase the independence of people with disabilities.
At Rezydencja AMBRE in Łeba, rehabilitation stays take place in the Hotel Medi & SPA formula, combining professional rehabilitation with the comfort of a hotel by the sea – a pool, SPA area and a rich leisure offer.
Who can receive PFRON funding
Among those eligible for PFRON funding are: - people with an certificate of disability (children) or a degree of disability certificate (adults), - people holding an equivalent certificate (e.g. from ZUS, KRUS), - in justified cases – also caregivers of people with disabilities.
Funding is granted by the county family support center (PCPR) or the municipal social welfare center (MOPS/MOPR) competent for the place of residence. The amount of the subsidy depends, among other things, on the degree of disability, income situation and the type of stay.
2. Booking steps: application, documents, deadlines
Step 1: Choose a facility and a preliminary date
Before you submit an application to PFRON, it is worth: 1. Choosing a facility – e.g. Rezydencja AMBRE in Łeba (you can find rehabilitation stays at Rezydencja AMBRE on the page: https://rezydencjaambre.pl/index.php/turnusy-rehabilitacyjne/). 2. Checking available dates for 2026 – preferably 6–9 months in advance. 3. Contacting reception: - e‑mail: recepcja@rezydencjaambre.pl - tel.: +48 794 68 68 68 or 608 271 962 to: - make sure the facility has an up-to-date entry in the register of centers authorized to organize rehabilitation stays, - reserve a preliminary date (often for the duration of the PFRON procedure).
Step 2: Application to PCPR/MOPS
- Download the application for co-financing of a rehabilitation stay from your PCPR/MOPS website or pick it up in person.
- Attach to the application:
- a copy of the disability certificate,
- a medical certificate of the need to participate in the stay (on the appropriate PCPR form),
- income declarations (if required),
- preliminary information about the chosen facility (Rezydencja AMBRE) and the preferred date.
- Submit the complete set of documents as early as possible – in many counties the call for funding applications for a given year starts already at the turn of winter and spring.
Step 3: Decision on funding and reservation
- After reviewing the application you will receive a decision granting the funding and information on its amount.
- Then:
- Contact Rezydencja AMBRE to confirm the date and the room type.
- Send the required documents to the facility (e.g. referral, funding decision, data for the contract).
- Read the Booking Regulations: http://rezydencjaambre.pl/regulamin-rezerwacji/.
Remember that PFRON usually does not cover 100% of costs – part of the amount (the so‑called own contribution) is paid by you directly at the facility.
