Long-term care facilities (LTCF) were and are particularly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The dimensions of the outbreaks and the high mortality among residents led to massive restrictions in LTCFs, especially in the area of social contacts and activities but also in areas of medical care. With the start of vaccinations and the improved testing options, the situation has now changed and existing restrictions must be evaluated to determine whether they are still appropriate. In an interprofessional and interdisciplinary group of experts, considerations have been formulated on how a way back to normality could look like in LTCFs.
长期护理机构(LTCF)过去和现在都受到新冠疫情的特别影响。疫情爆发的规模以及居民中的高死亡率导致长期护理机构受到大规模限制,尤其是在社交接触和活动领域,但在医疗护理领域也受到限制。随着疫苗接种的开始和检测选项的改善,情况现在已经发生了变化,必须对现有限制措施进行评估,以确定它们是否仍然合适。一个跨专业和跨学科的专家小组已经就长期护理机构如何回归正常状态提出了一些想法。
