Nagasaki Prefecture: Service Continuity Support Subsidy for Care Facilities

A Nagasaki Prefecture subsidy program supporting care facilities and providers to secure personnel and stabilize operations. It addresses labor shortages caused by pandemic impacts and demographic decline by providing grants for care worker recruitment, wage improvement, and retention initiatives. Eligible: Care insurance facilities (nursing homes, health care facilities) and service providers (home care, day service centers, etc.) operating in Nagasaki Prefecture. Covered expenses include salary increases, improved benefits, training programs, and recruitment activities; subsidy rates and caps vary by facility size and type. Applicants must hold valid care insurance designations and demonstrate commitment to continuing operations in Nagasaki Prefecture. With chronic staffing shortages in regional care sectors, this subsidy is critical for improving worker compensation, recruitment effectiveness, and long-term staff retention.
