How to attract and retain workers in the system of long-term care for the elderly?

Around half of the deaths caused by the coronavirus in Croatia pertain to elderly persons living in nursing homes. However, people working in the long-term care system are also exposed to the coronavirus as they often lack adequate protective equipment and are set to work in new and more difficult circumstances. In June, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) published its Report on people employed in the system of long-term care for the elderly. The present press release summarises the key results and recommendations from the said report. The report primarily emphasises the need for more employees, better working conditions and acquisition of additional knowledge and skills.
