The payment of compensation for services of older people, people with disabilities and children, young people, and families in the wellbeing services county of Vantaa will be transferred to the Oima service 14.11.2025. Due to the change, the payment day for compensation will also be changed.
We are organizing additional training sessions for using Oima as follows:

The advantages with Oima are, that compensation receivers in the future themselves can notify their matters regarding care through their own service portal and can check their own agreements, compensation calculations and information regarding retained free days. The valid tax card information used for the payment of compensation will be updated electronically in Oima directly from the Tax administrations system.
The introduction of the Oima service will change the payment day for compensation. Today the compensation and reimbursement of expenses are paid in general during the current month. With the introduction of the Oima service, the compensation for the care period and the reimbursement of expenses are paid on the 15 th on the following month or in other words the compensation and reimbursement for October are paid 14.11.2025. With the change you can report events for the entire care period at the same time. The goal with the change is to decrease the rectification of faults and recovery of payments.
With the implementation of the Oima service, substitute caregivers in elderly services will no longer receive compensation automatically. From now on, they must record the completed care sessions directly in Oima.
The Oima service is put into use after 1.10.2025 at https://minun.oima.fi/login?lang=en_US. Start creating an account with the "Create an account for free" button. You log in to the Oima for the first time with strong authentication. After registration, you will be able to log in with our own created credentials.
Trainings are organized for users of the service as remote trainings (Google Meets). You need internet access, a computer, smart telephone or a tablet to participate in the remote training. For informal carers of elderly, a possibility for training will be organized at Myyrmäki, Simonkylä and Kerava senior centre. You find the dates to the trainings in the end of this article. The training will cover how to log into Oima, how to register care periods, checking agreements and information about free days as well as calculation of compensation.
