Germany lacks 35,000 health workers to care for elderly, sick

Berlin, Nov 27 (UNI/Sputnik) Germany lacks at least 35,000 health workers to care for the sick and elderly, the national daily newspaper Welt reported on Saturday citing data from the Competence Center for Securing Skilled Employees (KOFA) at the German Institute of Economics.
The shortage of staff came up despite a 40% rise in vacancies in the field since 2011.
It is furthermore noted that the real scale of staff shortages may be even greater than 35,000, since KOFA's estimate only reflects the lower bound.
