EAHSA’s response on the Green Paper Workforce Health of the European Commission

The European Ageing Network EAHSA welcomes the Commission’s Green Paper on the healthcare workforce. In our response EAHSA emphasizes that Investments in staff motivation and moral are a key element in a succesfull strategy towards a sustainable workforce. The Eden Alternative and other new approaches on care for the elderly have a positive effect on staff satisfaction and motivation.

EAHSA would very much welcome European cooperation in agreeing high level principles for the care for the elderly, in line with these new approaches on care. EAHSA also encourages further exchange of information on the state of the art in long term care for the elderly.
The Green Paper launched by the European Commission aims

• to increase the visibility of the issues facing the EU health workforce,
• to generate a clearer picture of the extent to which local and/or national health managers face the same challenges;
• to provide a better basis for considering what could be done at EU level to address these problems effectively,;
• to help identify where the Commission believes
• that further action can be undertaken
• and to launch a debate on it.
