Enligt lagen om personlig assistans, LSS, kan inte antalet assistanstimmar ut\u00f6kas eller beviljas f\u00f6r en person som har fyllt 65 \u00e5r. Insatsen ska allts\u00e5 vara beviljad f\u00f6re 65-\u00e5rsdagen och det beslut som fattas d\u00e5 f\u00e5r personen i fr\u00e5ga sedan beh\u00e5lla livet ut. Detta inneb\u00e4r att om exempelvis X person skulle drabbas av en stroke n\u00e4r x \u00e4r 64 \u00e5r har X m\u00f6jlighet till att f\u00e5 personlig assistans, sker detta ett \u00e5r senare finns inte den m\u00f6jligheten. Detta ser jag som en \u00e5ldersdiskriminering samt i direkt strid med LSS intentioner.<\/p>\n

Diskriminering \u00e4r, i sin bredaste definition, n\u00e4r en person eller grupp av personer g\u00f6r \u00e5tskillnad mellan olika m\u00e4nniskor, inte p\u00e5 grund av meriter eller kvaliteter utan p\u00e5 grund av mer grundl\u00e4ggande egenskaper till exempel delar av den diskriminerades identitet. Det \u00f6vergripande m\u00e5let f\u00f6r LSS \u00e4r att den enskilde ska f\u00e5 m\u00f6jlighet att leva som andra i sin \u00e5lder, trots funktionshindret. Syftet \u00e4r allts\u00e5 att \u00e5stadkomma j\u00e4mlika levnadsvillkor och full delaktighet i samh\u00e4llslivet. Genom insatserna ska man f\u00f6rebygga och minska f\u00f6ljderna av funktionshindret. Denna r\u00e4tt g\u00e4ller s\u00e5ledes inte n\u00e4r du fyllt 65.<\/p>\n

Jag var under v\u00e5ren i kontakt med en av mina klienter som var v\u00e4ldigt stressad kring just denna situation. Han var n\u00e4ra att fylla 65 och vi hade just f\u00e5tt ett beslut om personlig assistans. Beslutet som han fick t\u00e4cker hans behov helt okej men han var i behov av betydligt mer dubbel assistans. Vi \u00f6verklagade beslutet och v\u00e4ntar i nul\u00e4get p\u00e5 beslut kring detta fr\u00e5n F\u00f6rvaltningsr\u00e4tten. Klienten har de senaste \u00e5ren blivit betydligt s\u00e4mre och hans behov har \u00f6kat kraftigt. Han \u00e4r r\u00e4dd att denna utveckling ska fortg\u00e5, vilket i s\u00e5 fall kommer bli ett problem f\u00f6r honom. Varf\u00f6r ska inte han ha samma m\u00f6jlighet som personer under 65 \u00e5r att ans\u00f6ka om ut\u00f6kning av personlig assistans? Personer som har slitit hela sitt yrkesliv m\u00e5ste ha samma r\u00e4tt att kr\u00e4va sina r\u00e4ttigheter, och en r\u00e4ttighet \u00e4r precis vad personlig assistans enligt LSS \u00e4r.<\/p>\n

Ska hemtj\u00e4nsten g\u00e5 in och tillgodose behoven? Assistans \u00e4r mer kostnadseffektivt \u00e4n hemtj\u00e4nst per timme. Dessutom ska insatser grundas p\u00e5 behov som den enskilde sj\u00e4lv finner angel\u00e4gna att f\u00e5 tillgodosedda f\u00f6r att kunna leva ett s\u00e5 sj\u00e4lvst\u00e4ndigt och oberoende liv som m\u00f6jligt, s\u00e5 likt ett liv som andra personer utan funktionshinder i samma \u00e5lder i sin omgivning.<\/p>\n

Jag var \u00e4ven i samtal med en annan klient som hade en n\u00e4ra v\u00e4n som ville ans\u00f6ka om personlig assistans och verkligen hade behovet f\u00f6r det. Men personen i fr\u00e5ga var \u00f6ver 65 \u00e5r vilket inneb\u00e4r att han f\u00e5r forts\u00e4tta med sitt beslut om hemtj\u00e4nst som han inte alls \u00e4r n\u00f6jd med och det funkar inte alls som han \u00f6nskar.<\/p>\n

Slutsatsen \u00e4r allts\u00e5 att det \u00e4r av stor vikt att lagen ska g\u00e4lla lika f\u00f6r alla och att man oavsett \u00e5lder ska ha r\u00e4tt att bli beviljad personlig assistans samt m\u00f6jlighet att ans\u00f6ka om ut\u00f6kningar. Ingen som uppfyller de \u00f6vriga kraven f\u00f6r att f\u00e5 personlig assistans (personkrets + hj\u00e4lpbehovet) ska nekas m\u00f6jligheten att denna r\u00e4tt pr\u00f6vad.<\/p>\n
