“Not an issue” – increase in the scandal home? Country blocks Senecura

An increase in the number of seniors in the scandal home Senecura in Salzburg-Lehen is not up for debate.

The Senecura home in Lehen just had to reduce the number of residents from 90 to 50 people in need of care due to a serious lack of care. Temporary workers and temporary workers also work in-house. This has stabilized the situation for the moment, but many of the workers are only employed there until December. According to the state, the home supervisor checks the house in Lehen unannounced at least every two weeks. “The controls did not identify any standard violations under the Care Act,” says the spokeswoman for the responsible regional councilor, Martina Berthold. At the beginning of November she took over the office from Heinrich Schellhorn, who resigned after the care scandal in the Senecura home. Country: “Expansion of occupancy is not an issue” At a service meeting, the Senecura management is said to have spoken again of an increase in residents – because otherwise the financial damage would be too great. The country doesn’t want to hear about that. “It has been agreed that more residents can only be admitted in coordination with the state and city. Expanding occupancy is currently not an issue. The common goal of all those involved is a stable personnel and support situation before further steps can be discussed,” says the state spokeswoman.
