Well-being - The Ministry has pronounced the nursing chamber a flop.

Following a detailed evaluation lasting several months, the Social Ministry has disclosed that the formation of a nursing hub in Baden-Württemberg has been unsuccessful. The compulsory quorum was notably missed by roughly 3,400 votes, the ministry disclosed on Monday in Stuttgart. The hub would have been realized only if 67,757 caregivers did not object to its creation. On the other hand, only around 64,380 of the roughly 120,000 registered caregivers expressed their opinions before the end of February.

With a hint of frustration, Social Minister Manne Lucha remarked, "It's not a hidden fact I would have liked to see a nursing hub established." The quorum was envisioned to provide the hub with substantial legitimacy. "Unfortunately, based on the registration results, it seems this is not the case."

It appears that there are almost equal numbers of those in favor of and those against the establishment of a nursing hub in the southwest, Lucha observed. "It's now time for all caregivers and political decision-makers to confront the professional-political issues of tomorrow without the presence of a nursing hub and with immense vigor."

In May, the state parliament cleared the path for a nursing hub. The green-black state administration had justified its stance at the time by stating it could empower caregivers and enhance their professional standing.
