The LMP is tabled amendments to ensure that the area of aged care receives the necessary attention in next year's budget, said Péter Ungár, the party's member of parliament, at a press conference in Budapest on Thursday.

To standardise the educational pay scale for social and health workers, to pay the one-off supplement of HUF 500,000 promised at the beginning of the crown virus epidemic in the social sector, to raise the normative of public nursing homes to the same level as church institutions, and to reach the minimum wage for nursing home care. – the politician listed some of their initiatives. Although the government considers it a responsibility for families to care for elderly relatives who are unable to take care of themselves, in many cases it is not possible, it is unlucky and professionally unrecommended to care at home. In the last eight years, the capacity of the institution system for nursing homes has not increased, it will have to wait two to three years, 10-15 000 people are missing from elderly care due to low wages, and the 2021 budget would not change the situation.
