Monaco
The national plan for ageing support and dependency care is the strategic framework that aims to ensure positive home care experiences for beneficiaries and their families, prevent successive re-hospitalizations and loss of autonomy, and increase the number of available places in institutions for dependent older persons. The key institutions involved are the Department of Social Affairs and Health, the Directorate of Health Action, the Directorate of Forecasting, Urban Planning, and Mobility, Princess Grace Hospital Center (CHPG) and the Department of Clinical Gerontology. The main stakeholders are service providers for personal services. The policy is national in scope and its targeted audience is dependent older persons, whether at home or in institutions. Key features of the plan include the upgrading the rates of autonomy benefits, the signature of agreements with personal service provider companies, the issue a Sovereign Ordinance requiring accreditation for these companies, and the implementation of a procedure for reporting adverse events, among others. In the short term, 150 additional places will be created at the Cap Fleuri Residences and Hector Otto Foundation. By 2024/2025, a new Accommodation Establishment for Dependent Older Persons will be opened. The plan was introduced in 2019.
