In response to staffing challenges, the Curaviva Baselland association recommends a 10% increase in trainee wages for healthcare and elderly care homes. The aging population in Baselland necessitates a larger workforce, and many institutions are already implementing this wage adjustment. While the initiative aims to make positions more appealing, it raises financial concerns for some facilities. The recommendation also extends to all trainees in senior care organizations, highlighting the broader context of the ongoing efforts to bolster the healthcare workforce in Switzerland.
