De gezondheidstransitie in Limburg: meer focus op preventie en belang van zorginnovaties

De druk op de zorg is ontzettend hoog. Een soort van overspannen zelfs. De zorgvraag neemt toe en de zorg wordt steeds duurder. Ook moet er na de Coronapandemie nog steeds zorg ingehaald worden. Tegelijkertijd kampt de zorgsector met personeelstekorten en neemt de vraag naar zorgpersoneel de komende jaren alleen maar toe. De manier waarop we nu met zorg omgaan, met onze gezondheid, is niet meer houdbaar in de toekomst. Kortom: de gezondheidstransitie is hard nodig. Ook in Limburg.
