Statement

End social isolation of people in nursing homes!

Urgent recommendations from BAGSO to politicians

BAGSO urgently appeals to the federal and state governments to implement their decision of 15 April 2020 as quickly as possible and to end the social isolation of people in care institutions. The bans on visits and leaving the institutions that have been in force for six weeks are by far the most serious infringement on basic rights in the current corona pandemic. In its statement, BAGSO names the ten most urgent measures to improve the situation in nursing homes. A certain degree of personal contact must be guaranteed.
