NÖ State Government is investing 980,000 euros in hospice supply!
The Lower Austrian state government has made an important decision: With a funding commitment of 980,000 euros, the State Association Hospiz Lower Austria is massively supported in its work to improve the hospice and palliative care. This was recently announced and emphasized that about 75 percent of these funds come from the federal hospice and palliative funds. "Lower Austria is considered a pioneer in the hospice and palliative care. It is very important to us to continue to maintain our offer and adapt to the needs of the Lower Austrians," explain the two regional councilors Christiane Teschl-Hofmeister and Ulrike Königsberger-Ludwig.
The importance of training and further education in the field of hospice and palliative care, both for volunteers and for full-time persons, is particularly emphasized. As Teschl-Hofmeister and Königsberger-Ludwig explain, the accompaniment of seriously ill people is a challenging and responsible task that requires not only medical but also strong social skills. This upgrading of the sector is not only a sign of the appreciation of employee work, but also a clear announcement for the provision of humanity and care in healthcare.worthy life to the end
The conception of hospice and palliative care aims to maintain the quality of life of people whose diseases can no longer be healed. "Both hospice and palliative care should enable a dignified and livable life until the end of life," said State Councilor Teschl-Hofmeister. In order to meet this responsibility, individual care and support in the Lower Austria care and care centers is essential. The focus here is on the residents, and the employees strive for intensive, interdisciplinary care.
The special facilities guarantee comprehensive care for terminally ill people of all ages and offer close cooperation with mobile palliative teams. These teams are the link between the basic care and the specialized care, as in the reporting of noe.gv.at The sympathy and professional accompaniment of relatives are particularly emphasized in all facilities, which underlines the need to continue to strengthen and expand the hospice and palliative care. "The care of seriously ill people is a valuable and necessary area," says Teschl-Hofmeister. This clearly shows the state government that the support of seriously ill people plays a central role.
