Final report on Örebro home care reveals deficiencies

A final report on home care and home health services in Örebro points to several deficiencies, mainly the lack of focus on the elderly.

The investigation into home care and home health services in Örebro has been ongoing for more than a year. Problems surfaced in autumn 2024 and spring 2025, leading to two reports to IVO and the launch of an external review. The partial report arrived in June 2025. The final report is now complete and highlights several deficiencies. The investigators note in their analysis that the user is in many cases strangely absent from the interviews.
