The fact that the hospitals lack nursing staff, in the intensive care units, but not only there, has been the case for a long time.

The pandemic, in which many dropped out of the nursing profession, has exacerbated the situation.

It's like a blanket that was stretched tight and held in place and now gets more and more holes because everyone is pulling on all ends.

In the clinics, those responsible fight for every employee

, also at the university clinic in Frankfurt.

Anyone who leaves the profession is a loss for the health system, says Birgit Roelfsema, nursing director at the clinic.

She is still quite new to this position, and she has a plan: to convince people, some of whom left their jobs years ago and for a wide variety of reasons, to return to work.

How does she want to achieve that?

With a program that attracts with flexible working hours, among other things.

Can

climate change

have any good? For

winegrowers

, on the one hand, for those in the

Rheingau,

for example. As a result of global warming, it has slipped from the northern limit of high-yield winegrowing into a favored wine-growing zone, so to speak. At the 50th parallel, even Mediterranean grape varieties such as Chardonnay and Merlot could now be grown successfully. On the other hand: During their collegial relief efforts for the wineries in the Ahr valley that were flooded and partly destroyed, the Rheingau winemakers got to know the existential threat of a natural disaster, also caused by climate change, up close. Quite a few therefore wonder

whether a winery can produce its products in a climate-neutral way

. One of the answers: It depends on how the consumer behaves. Why this is so and what role bottles play in it: Rheingau correspondent Oliver Bock knows the answer. Brief preview: It's critical with glass.  

Not as often as coaches in football, but quite often cultural workers change their place of work in prominent positions. One person related to Frankfurt:

Sebastian Baden is to head the Kunsthalle Schirn from July 2022

. The SPD politician and Frankfurt culture department head Ina Hartwig announced on Thursday. Baden, a PhD in art and media studies who was born in 1980 and who has also completed an artistic training, comes from the Kunsthalle Mannheim, where he has been curator for contemporary art, sculpture and new media since 2016. So far, Philipp Demandt has managed the Schirn, the Städel Museum and the Liebieghaus, but he remains the head of the latter two. Ina Hartwig had one unbundling of the houses and one in September

The tip for the weekend

With Anja Kaiser and her colleagues from the Frankfurt flight simulator you have to concentrate a lot: Anyone who can experience the illusion of flying in the event office in the Jerrie building in Gateway Gardens and fly to Hong Kong in a passenger plane in the simulator or break through the cloud cover with an F18 fighter jet want, you have to follow a lot of rules so that you don't crash the virtual machines - regardless of whether you are a layman or an experienced pilot, individual lessons, adventure flights or group events.

For some, this is sure to be an unusual Christmas present.
