Must not feel
Some council members were concerned about how rising service prices at the Kėdainiai Community Social Center may affect the population receiving services, but Jūratė Blinstrubaitė, the head of the municipal department of social support, said the population I would not feel the price increase.
“The price increase itself will not have a significant impact on the population.
In accordance with the government-approved social services payment procedure and our own procedure modified in February, all severely disabled people who receive childcare services are provided free of charge.
For others, the price depends on the income received by the recipient of the service.
If the income does not reach the amount of 2 state financed income, 250 euros, the services are provided to people for free.
Of the 16 residents who received these services, 2 were not severely disabled and had incomes ranging from 2 to 3 state-sponsored incomes. In that case, they had to pay 10% for the services. of his income The pay was about 20 and 30 euros a month.
A substantial price change would be relevant to those who, without severe disability, would receive income in excess of 4 state supported income levels. Then they would have to pay 50 percent. their income However, we still don’t have that population, “said the department head.
I hope not
The transformation of institutional care across Lithuania started in Kėdainiai four years ago. There are expected to be no hospital care institutions in Kėdainiai until next year.
„2016 m. We approved the procedure for the reform of the child care system, going from institutional care.
By July, 23 children would remain in hospital care at the Family Support Center. Of these, 12 children would be transferred to community orphanages, leaving 11 children.
In 2021, four of them would be 18 years old.
We believe that at least this year we will buy another apartment, which we plan to repair.
By the end of 2021, there would be no inpatient institutions in the Kėdainiai district, of course, if it did not happen that there would suddenly be many children in need of care and there would not be as many caregivers who could receive them, ”said J. Blinstrubaitė.
