Abstract (english)
Carer’s allowance is one type of support to providers of informal long-term care. The 2022 Social Welfare Act enabled not only spouses or domestic partners of persons with disabilities to be granted carer status, but also persons of the care recipient’s choice, which means that children, relatives, friends and others can be granted the status of carer, provided that they share a household with the care recipient. In addition, people over the age of 65 may also become carers now. The present Note demonstrates how these changes led to an increase in the number of elderly persons with disabilities who were granted a carer – rising from 1 in early 2022 to 109 in mid-2024. However, the latter number is still small. A large number of elderly people with severe limitations in performing personal care and household activities are not supported; the government should put long-term care in the centre of its social policies.
