EVALUATION OF DEVELOPMENT OF SUPPLY OF THE SELECTED RESIDENTIAL SOCIAL SERVICES FOR ELDERLY

Original language description

The issue of demographic aging in the Czech Republic is and will be soon a more and more topic number one. In connection with this development trend, the social services sector, focusing primarily on the expanding target group in the post-productive age, is increasing at the forefront of state interest. The aim of this paper study is to evaluate the development of the offer of selected residential social services for the elderly - homes for the elderly and homes with special regime, according to providers, bed availability and financial security of individual facilities by the state. Evaluation of the development was carried out since 2007, when there was a fundamental change in legislation in the social services sector - the Social Services Act came into force until 2017. A simple measure of time series dynamics was used to map the development of the offer of residential social facilities for seniors. The results show that the offer of social services for seniors is insufficient in terms of the number of facilities and their bed capacity, with a slow rate of growth in relation to the annual growing number of persons aged 65+. With the adoption of a new social benefit, care allowance, the role of the state in the financial security of these facilities has increased. Nevertheless, individual social service providers face annual problems due to the insufficient amount of funds paid out from public budgets.
