- It is positive that more elderly people with home care receive a permanent care contact. This is a basic requirement for security and continuity in care. This work needs to continue and more need to be offered a permanent care contact. However, it is alarming that one cannot meet their contact to the extent they wish, says Maria Larsson, President of SPF Seniorerna. #äldreomsorg #hemtjänst #seniorer (translated)

According to the Socialstyrelsen's latest survey on elderly care, 39 percent of older people receiving home care report that they seldom or never meet their regular care contact, despite an increase in the proportion who are offered such contact. #äldreomsorg #hemtjänst #seniorer (translated)

The Moderates wrote that there was previously no requirement for staff in elderly care to be able to speak Swedish, which according to the party posed a risk that the elderly misunderstood or were misunderstood regarding their care. The party stated that the regulations had been changed and that a language requirement would take effect on July 1, 2026. https://t.co/k7Sia9T0Cy #äldreomsorg #språkkrav #vård #SE (translated)

Sjöbo Municipality is criticized by the Parliamentary Ombudsman for having installed a surveillance camera in Ilona Nielsen's apartment at a nursing home without her daughter's consent, raising questions about privacy and care for the elderly with dementia. #äldreomsorg #integritet #digitalövervakning (translated)

Ann T. Red wrote that people saw patterns in weather, wind, precipitation, and temperatures and interpreted them as evidence of climate change. At the same time, she argued, they saw no patterns regarding rapes, crime, children carrying out contract killings, sexual abuse in elderly care, falls from balconies, or dominance behaviors in society. #klimatförändringar #brottslighet #samhälle (translated)

Marie wrote that a relative had asked the editor-in-chief of PRO's magazine whether the organization could arrange protests against rapes in elder care committed by home care staff. According to Marie, the response showed no interest and said that such crimes would be prosecuted if they occurred. She claimed that even PRO abandoned the elderly and wrote that sisterhood was lacking. #äldreomsorg #våldtäkt #protest (translated)

Jessica Stegrud wrote that rapes, abuse, and neglect in elderly care must cease. She stated that the Sweden Democrats had long raised the issues and proposed, among other things, mandatory background checks, the option to choose the gender of care staff, voluntary camera surveillance, mandatory probationary employment when references were lacking, and investments in qualified staff. She also called for consequences for politicians and civil servants who, according to her, concealed the problems or did not take responsibility. Stegrud argued that a mission to BRÅ was not enough and demanded a disaster commission. #jessicastegrud #äldreomsorg #trygghet #kriminalitet (translated)

Ramona Fransson wrote that a 92-year-old woman who had recently undergone surgery and was on an IV reported that she had been raped by a male nursing assistant at a hospital in Malmö. According to Fransson, the preliminary investigation was closed despite the woman's account, witness statements, and documented injuries in the genital area. She also wrote that elderly individuals have been sexually abused by healthcare staff and then further humiliated by the justice system. Over four years, 88 employees in healthcare and social services had been reported to the police for raping elderly individuals, she wrote, and nine had been convicted. https://t.co/hECbsGC856 #SexuelltVåld #Övergrepp #Äldreomsorg (translated)

Without bank ID, it becomes almost impossible for many to live a normal life in Sweden, especially for the elderly and people who have difficulties with digital services, which underscores the need to introduce a proxy function to help them. #Digitalisering #BankID #Äldreomsorg (translated)

Now Sveriges Radio is reporting extensively on rapes against the elderly in home care. A couple of weeks ago I wrote about just this – about how elderly care has long functioned as a labor market for integration policy for newly arrived and immigrant labor. Some points from my review: • Elderly Minister Anna Tenje notes that elderly care has for too long been used as a labor market and integration policy arena: “Almost anyone has been allowed in.” • Foreign-born individuals account for 31.8 percent of the wage sum in care, compared to 19.1 percent in the economy as a whole. Care is the welfare sector with the highest proportion. • Of the over 20,000 unaccompanied men who arrived in 2015, 27.5 percent are now working in care, social services, and welfare – about 5,500 people. • Employers can receive very large government wage subsidies to hire, among others, newly arrived individuals. A home care entrepreneur describes to Fokus how employers are actively fed information about the support. • The Employment Service also states that the authority does not impose its own requirements for education, language, or suitability when someone is matched with elderly care: “It is the employer who sets the requirements.” • And the question that still lacks a proper answer: is there a connection between this recruitment and integration policy and the abuses? Anna Tenje says that the knowledge situation is too poor to draw that conclusion. The Crime Prevention Council has therefore been tasked with mapping the crimes.

🔴Över 100 anställda inom äldreomsorgen i Växjö är dömda Över 100 anställda inom äldreomsorgen i Växjö kommun har en eller flera domar i belastningsregistret, enligt en granskning av Smålandsposten. Totalt handlar det om 164 domar. Bland brotten finns sexualbrott, däribland våldtäkt mot barn. En av de anställda är alltså dömd för våldtäkt mot barn och arbetar samtidigt inom äldreomsorgen. Detta trots att Växjö kommun uppger att registerutdrag ska begäras vid nyanställningar inom omsorgsförvaltningen. Sedan den 1 mars 2026 har kommuner dessutom rätt att begära utdrag ur både belastningsregistret och misstankeregistret vid anställningar inom äldreomsorg och hemtjänst. Frågan är hur personer med tidigare domar har kunnat hamna i verksamheten och vilka kontroller som faktiskt har genomförts. Källa: Smålandsposten #äldreomsorg #Växjö #brottslingar

Trots löften om ökade resurser till äldreomsorgen under coronapandemin har resurserna per person över 80 år minskat med 19 procent, vilket innebär att äldreomsorgen inte har prioriterats i förhållande till de växande behoven bland en ökande äldre befolkning. #äldreomsorg #äldreboende #hemtjänst

Fackförbundet Kommunal går runt på Malmös sjukhus och uppmanar undersköterskor och sjuksköterskor att rösta på Socialdemokraterna. Du som jobbar i vården har INGEN skyldighet att delta i dessa propagandamöten för sossarna på din arbetsplats. S styr Malmö kommun som regelmässigt mörkar stölder och sexuella övergrepp i äldreomsorgen. Lyssna inte på dem. #Sverige #Vården #Politik

Pratade med en 90-årig judinna i vår brf. Hon berättade medan hon grät att hon inte vågar ha hemtjänst fast hon behöver det. Flera av hennes judiska bekanta har råkat illa ut. De har fått motta nyp och våldsam behandling av personalen. Blev ordentligt berörd och skäms som svensk. #JudiskHistoria #Äldreomsorg #MänskligaRättigheter
