Oberndorf day center
Approval was a year in the making
Oberndorf is allowed to reopen its day center for senior citizens. Elderly people from eight municipalities found care here before the corona pandemic. It has been closed ever since. The state of Salzburg only recently gave the green light to restart.
Corona was to blame for the closure. Oberndorf had to put the day center on hold in 2020 due to the pandemic. Since then, this service has no longer been available for a catchment area of eight municipalities. Now the wait is finally over. Next Monday, the St. Nikolaus retirement home will open its doors to day guests again.
"The permit was missing. We weren't allowed to open without it," explains SPÖ mayor Georg Djundja. The town hall was surprised that the matter had been delayed for so long. Contact had already been made with the responsible department at the end of 2023. Especially in times of the care crisis and increasing life expectancy, offers for day visits are a valuable relief. "We were granted approval at the end of December," says Djundja. The city had to make adjustments here and there. "Sometimes we didn't understand that either," says the head of the town.
The day center starts on Monday. Senior citizens who are interested in places can come and have a look. Ten places are available each day. Three care staff and two day-to-day managers are on duty.
