In the three-year budget 2023-2025, the parties want to invest SEK 56 million to strengthen the supply of skills in the longer term.
The region's management sees a future where there is great competition for labor and a need to recruit around 1,000 people annually.
Some examples of what the coalition prioritises in this year's budget: Experience supplement, basic salary investment in round-the-clock operations, lower weekly working hours for those with night and weekend services, retained salary for nurses who train as midwives.
The opposition comments
“The Moderates and the Christian Democrats view the proposals that exist regarding the long-term supply of skills for 24sju activities positively.
We have for a long time raised issues concerning the supply of skills. ”
Opposition councilor Marie Morell (M) writes in an email response.
She also writes that: “Nurses are obviously an important part of care, but we want to draw attention to the fact that there are other professional categories that are central for care to work, this applies to everything from doctors, biomedical analysts to care administrators and IT staff.
An overly one-sided investment solely in nurses does not solve the problems that healthcare has. ”
A decision in the matter will be made at the regional board's meeting on 6 April.
