... who is no longer independent in care (a certificate of the LKK about the need for care has already been issued)

The local Tsnapi said that since 2019 they do not issue permanent care, they can only issue it as an assistant to a physically capable person

Is it legal for the Tsnapa to refuse registration of permanent care?

The following are entitled to permanent care:

  • those who have a disability since childhood, regardless of their current age;

  • people with group I disabilities;

  • those who have reached the age of 80;

  • people who have a persistent mental illness and group I or II disability in connection with it;

  • senior citizens and people with disabilities who are incapable of self-care.

In order to arrange permanent care for such a person, you need to apply to the body of social protection of the population.
