Structure of Clients in Residential Social Services for the Elderly: A Regional Analysis
Original language description
The Czech population is aging and, therefore, the demand for long-term care services for the elderly is increasing. This paper deals with the regional structure of clients of residential social services for the elderly concerning their degree of dependence. The study focuses on clients in retirement homes and special regime homes and analyses data obtained from the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs. Specifically, it compares the regional structure of clients in 2013 and 2017 using descriptive statistics. The structure of clients has changed. In particular, the proportion of clients with the two highest levels (severe and complete) of dependence has increased. Moreover, the number of unsatisfied applicants for special regime homes has also grown. The current system of social care services seems to be unsustainable in the long term. The paper thus seeks to contribute to the discussion of the necessary capacities of care facilities and draws attention to differences in the regions.
