Touching letter – Husband sees wife break in nursing profession

Date:

“Unfortunately I see how my wife is completely exhausted after a night shift and it just overwhelms her. I don’t think that is in the interest of the caregivers, the people being cared for and the relatives”, an Upper Austrian fears that his woman, who works in aged care, will make up for it with the current situation.

In a letter – which is also available for the “Krone” – he addresses Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen: “According to the nursing home regulation, LGBi.No. 83/2020″ is a nurse in a home with less than 60 people allowed to work the night shift. I just wonder if any of the decision makers were ever responsible for, say, 30 people alone.”

“Even before Corona, there were many things that could be improved. Everything has been exacerbated by the pandemic. I resist the accusation that we talk badly about everything. You have to communicate the issues honestly and work on them together,” says Sebastian Prohaska, chairman of the Central Works Council of the Linz Order Clinic.

Beds must remain partially empty
An open letter from the religious hospital put pressure on local politicians for the second time in six months. “We don’t need succinct, half-silver answers. Alibi measures do not help people,” Prohaska underlined his “benevolent but serious wake-up call” in an interview with “Krone”. The main problem is still the lack of staff, but also adequate remuneration of the employees. sometimes have to remain empty because there is simply no staff to take care of them.A lot of people currently lack perspective,” Prohaska hopes for improvement.
