Leif's home care withdrawn after decision by Ludvika Municipality

A long-running conflict has led to an 86-year-old man in Sunnansjö now lacking home care. Ludvika Municipality cites work environment problems.

On May 22, Ludvika Municipality decided that home care services for the Eriksson family could no longer be carried out. The decision was based on work environment problems.

The administrative court rejected a request for inhibition the day before Midsummer. After that, the decision took effect.

The conflict between the municipality and the family has been ongoing for a long time. The 86-year-old Leif now stands without care.
