The home help sector for the elderly or disabled will benefit in 2022 from a boost of 240 million euros, which will allow providers to receive at least 22 euros per hour of intervention, everywhere in France, Prime Minister Jean Castex announced Thursday.
This "minimum public funding", or "floor price", aims to "secure" home services and "repair an inequity," said Mr. Castex during a speech in Autun (Saône-et-Loire).
Currently, the financial support differs from one department to another, and "more than half of the hours worked (...) are paid below this level" of 22 euros, he stressed.
The Prime Minister also announced, on Thursday, announced the target of 10,000 additional caregivers in nursing homes by 2025.
