An elderly person with advanced dementia had to wait over eleven months from a decision to be made for the right to accommodation to the person being offered a place.
The Inspection for Health and Care (IVO) has now turned to the Administrative Court and requested that Luleå Municipality pay SEK 361,400 in a fine for the delay, reports Norrbottens-Kuriren.
The newspaper has previously reported that the Social Administration in Luleå expects the municipality to have to pay a total of SEK 50 million in the white to the state from 2023 onwards.
This is because they have not arranged places in elderly homes and group housing quickly enough. If it takes more than three months from the decision date, IVO believes that it has taken unreasonably long time.
