Caregivers don't have it easy - there is a burden due to the corona pandemic and a lack of staff.

Now the Corona care bonus is to be distributed.

The healthcare system is overloaded - a lack of staff, double shifts or events related to Corona.

Especially in the pandemic years, everyone in the healthcare industry works under tightened conditions.

This

additional burden

is to be recognized with a one-time maintenance bonus in 2022.

The federal government is making around 1 billion euros available for this, which will be divided equally between hospitals and nursing homes.

The

Federal Council gave its approval

on June 10, 2022.

The Corona care bonus 2022 is to be paid out.

However, the rescue service is left empty-handed.
