The Issue of Senior Self-sufficiency after Hospitalization - a Field for Geriatrics or Social Work
Original language description
Demographic aging of population brings a range of threats, which in the elderly can acquire the character of the life crisis. Limitation or loss of self-sufficiency may be among them. Illness and limitations of self-sufficiency often requires hospitalization of senior in hospital, where geriatric care is provided. But as well this is a social event requiring the presence of a social worker. Complex care of elderly is impeded in the Czech Republic by division of activity between the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Social Affairs. Seniors with lack of self-sufficiency appears to be the most vulnerable to the effects of departmentalism because strict separation affects both the termination of elderly hospitalization as well as follow-up aftercare. Sustainability of the quality and appropriateness of health and social services delivered requires addressed long-term care, such as the implementation of empirical research.
