Gothenburg nursing home hires security guards after reprisal threats, 22 police reports

A municipal nursing home in Gothenburg has hired round-the-clock security guards and issued personal alarms to five employees following an investigation revealing a culture of silence, threats of reprisals against whistleblowers, and 22 police reports. The investigation also found insufficient managerial presence, poor Swedish language skills among staff, and lack of control over 545 deviation reports. This highlights systemic failures in elder care oversight and workplace safety in Sweden.
