Description

The funding of short-term care in Tyrol supports individuals in need of care following acute events such as surgeries or illnesses by providing up to 28 days of inpatient care per calendar year in nursing and care homes with service agreements with the State of Tyrol. This grant addresses gaps in care for unexpected needs in the home environment, relieves caregiving relatives, and enables a seamless transition after hospital stays. The measure is equally aimed at private individuals, companies, public institutions, and non-profit organizations that offer short-term care places, providing a continuously accessible funding opportunity without a fixed deadline.

Eligible to apply are Austrian citizens or equivalent persons under the Tyrolean Home and Care Services Act with primary residence in Tyrol, provided no other inpatient accommodation is arranged and prior care in the private household has been demonstrated. Only expenses for the short-term care itself are funded, documented by submitting documents such as social security number, care allowance notice, proof of income, name of the care home, justification, and planned duration of stay. Applications can be submitted informally at any time; approval is generally granted within one month. This measure closes a gap in extramural care funding, ensures short-term assistance, and contributes to the quality of life as well as the sustainable relief of caregiving relatives in Tyrol.
