The City of Munich has funded a voluntary support programme for care transition in Munich care facilities for 25 years until 2024. It was a response by the Munich City Council to the reports of the complaints centre for problems in long-term care.

Most recently, more than 50 fully inpatient care facilities in Munich were funded with around 40,000 euros per full-time position each year. In the early years, the qualification of care referrals was subsidised according to a specially developed curriculum. In 2006, an [evaluation](https://www.muenchen.info/soz/pdf/LHM_ksfh_evaluation_pflegeueberleitung.pdf) was carried out by the Catholic Foundation University in Munich. The work of the care transitions was based on a [concept](https://stadt.muenchen.de/dam/jcr:455f3f14-29ca-4d28-93dc-99ea65541eb8/Konzept_Pflegeueberleitung_2018.pdf) that was constantly updated and coordinated with the providers.
