Images

The three photos on the website – two women together at a laptop in a living room, a carer talking with an older man, two people at a laptop in an office – are AI-generated. They are labelled “AI-generated image” on the image and show no customers or staff of Pflege Patienten.

The illustrations at the top of several pages – architectural models of buildings and care rooms as well as symbolic objects – are also AI-generated and labelled in the same way on the image. They are symbolic images: they show no real buildings, facilities, people or certifications.

The seven symbolic images on the regional pages for the Steinfurt district are also AI-generated (provided by Fabian Lücker on 19 October 2026): a model of a care landscape with a house and a care facility, homely rooms and seating areas, a symbolic path from a hospital building to a home, house models with a location marker, a view into a garden and a consultation scene with two AI-generated people. They are labelled “AI-generated symbolic image – not a local facility” or “AI-generated consultation scene – not a real office” on the image and show no real places, facilities or people.
