The following article talks about plans to resettle refugees from Ukraine in an eldercare facility. It’s hard to tell whether the new residents will be Ukrainians or “Ukrainians”, so I can’t assess the severity of the cultural enrichment that the old people will have to endure when their new neighbors arrive. Based on the quotes from current residents, however, it seems they’re looking forward to being enriched.

15 Seniors Affected

We are moving to a new floor because of refugees

“Stylish retirement home in a quiet location” is how the “retirement home at the Monastery Garden” is advertised. Located north-west of Munich, between potato fields and a costume shop.

137 people in need of care could be accommodated here, but currently almost sixty rooms are empty.

That should change as of November 1! Eighty refugees from Ukraine will then move into the ground floor of the facility.

Consequence: 15 residents will be distributed over the top two floors. Hannelore Gärtner (83) and Ursula Hellwig (83) had to move. Both now live in a corridor with dementia patients. [I’m pretty sure they are spry enough to climb those extra stairs.]

“It’s not how I imagined it,” says Hannelore Gärtner: “Sometimes it’s a theatre. The senile throw everything around. One exposes himself and pees. All that stuff…”

On the other hand, the old ladies hope that the newcomers — including many women and children — will bring some life into the home: “We’re looking forward to them,” says Ursula Hellwig, “we like children; they’re curious.”

Nevertheless: Refugees push people in need of care out of their rooms — can that work out well?

Mayor Norbert Riepl (CSU) warns of conflicts: “People with completely different lifestyles will move in,” says Riepl. He expects “a lot of unrest in the home”. Four security guards should therefore protect the facility in the future.

“The moves only took place after we had received the consent of all parties involved,” explains the operating company of the nursing home, the Korian Group. “So far we have been offering refugees free-standing living space in three of our facilities.”

Riepl criticizes the fact that the management of the home is relying on additional profits from the refugees due to a shortage of nursing staff: “Now the ground floor is rented out externally in order to generate replacement income.”

But District Administrator Thomas Karmasin (CSU), responsible for the allocation of the Ukrainians, sees no other option than quartering in a nursing home: “I have to accommodate fifty people almost every week so that they don’t freeze or starve.” There was “no other option” than that those in need of care would now also share space with refugees…

Afterword from the translator:

Which other habits and which conflicts are meant by that statement? Citizens are always told that the majority of women come with their children. Or are these “refugees” with brand new Ukrainian passports, but don’t come directly from Ukraine? Actually, security guards are more likely to be used for those “seeking protection” from foreign cultures with potential for aggression?

So they, the “refugees”, don’t freeze or starve!? One would also wish for such care and empathy for the homeless who have to vegetate on the streets or under bridges because there are not enough emergency shelters available during winter, and one cold-heartedly accepts those deaths from the cold. But that would mean no dopamine from social or mainstream media. And we can’t have that, now, can we? The signals of one’s “virtue” must be send out into the world at large.

Why are sixty rooms empty in this care facility? There is a shortage of nursing homes for seniors across the country. The solution to the riddle is very simple: many of the seniors can no longer afford a place. The costs have risen immeasurably, and for the coming year the next notifications of increases are currently being sent to the senior citizens. For many, the personal contribution can no longer be compensated. Even a quiet old age is no longer granted to the elderly. What disgusting politicians are out and about in this Germany, who lack any respect and admiration for the elderly that they expect such things of them. The conflicts are inevitable, disturbance of the peace, binge drinking, fights, drug use and trafficking, prostitution and possibly rape. It happened already where an elderly woman was attacked and abused by a migrant in her own living quarters. Quo vadis Germany.
