!!!Pflegevorsorge

Elderly, sick and disabled people, legal provisions governing care and 
attendance of: Based on an agreement between the federal and 
provincial governments on common action for persons in need of care, 
the respective legal provisions have been thoroughly modified by a 
federal act (Bundespflegegesetz, BGBl 1993/110 of September 1, 1993) 
and several provincial acts. A uniform system of nursing allowances 
was created, which replaces former payments, such as allowances for 
destitute persons, and which is to cover part of the additional 
expenses arising from payment of such allowances. All disabled persons 
and those in need of care are entitled to this nursing allowance, 
which is scaled according to the need for care, independently of the 
cause and type of the disability (mental, physical or emotional).
