Stanje in potrebe na področju dela s starimi ljudmi v občini Moravče : magistrsko delo

Brate, Katja (author), Zorn, Jelka (mentor)

Slovenija se sooča z demografskim staranjem populacije, ki prinaša s seboj številne izzive; epidemija COVID-19 je le še dodatno pokazala nujnost ureditve področja dolgotrajne oskrbe. V magistrskem delu sem zato preučevala trenutno stanje na področju socialnovarstvenih programov in storitev v občini Moravče in preučevala potrebe in interese občanov Moravč, ki potrebujejo in bodo v prihodnosti potrebovali podporo in pomoč zaradi starosti, invalidnosti in bolezenskih stanj. V teoretičnem delu sem poglobljeno predstavila naslednje pojme: starost in staranje, potrebe v starosti, socialno delo s starimi ljudmi, deinstitucionalizacija, dolgotrajna oskrba in oblike pomoči, ki so namenjene starim ljudem v Sloveniji. V formulaciji problema pa sem predstavila pomembne informacije o občini Moravče – preučila sem demografsko sliko lokalnega okolja, njene geografske značilnosti, ekonomsko situacijo, predstavila sem mrežo javnih služb in pripravila zemljevid razvoja programov na področju dela s starimi ljudmi. V kvalitativno raziskavo sem vključila upokojene stare občane Občine Moravče. V raziskavo sem vključila tudi predstavnike treh različnih organizacij, ki se ukvarjajo s starimi ljudmi v občini. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da je pomanjkljivost obstoječih organizacij nezadostno povezovanje in informiranje tako o ljudeh, ki potrebujejo pomoč, kot tudi storitvah, ki so na voljo. Obstoječe službe ne izvajajo raziskav javnega mnenja, s pomočjo katerih bi pridobili povratne informacije o kakovosti življenja in aktualnih potrebah starih ljudi. Ena izmed priložnosti občine je indeks staranja, ki se dviga počasneje kot v celotni Sloveniji. To omogoča, da lahko začnejo informirati občane o storitvah, ki so na voljo in vpeljevati nove programe pomoči in podpore, ki bodo usmerjeni predvsem v oskrbo v skupnosti. Druga prednost je razvita društvena dejavnost. Kot primer dobre prakse pa vsi izpostavljajo projekt Prostofer. Intervjuvani stari občani so v večini izrazili zadovoljstvo s kakovostjo življenja v občini. Podali so tudi različne predloge.

• Title: Current Situation and Needs in the Field of Work with the Elderly in the Municipality of Moravče S

Abstract

Slovenia is facing a demographic aging of the population, which brings many challenges; the COVID-19 epidemic only further demonstrated the need to regulate the field of long-term care. In my master's thesis I therefore studied the current situation in the field of social care programs and services in the municipality of Moravče and studied the needs and interests of citizens of Moravče who need and will need support and assistance in the future due to age, disability and illness. In the theoretical part, I presented in depth the following concepts: age and aging, needs in old age, social work with the elderly, deinstitutionalization of long-term care and forms of assistance intended for the elderly in Slovenia. In the formulation of the problem, I presented important information about the municipality of Moravče - I studied the demographic picture of the local environment, its geographical characteristics, economic situation, I presented the network of public services and prepared a map of programs for older people. In qualitative research I included retired elderly citizens of the Municipality of Moravče and representatives of three different organizations who are dealing with the elderly in the municipality. Among others the results of the research showed that the disadvantage of existing organizations is the lack of networking and sharing information about people who need help as well as the services available. Existing services do not carry out public opinion polls to obtain feedback on the quality of life and current needs of older people. One of the opportunities of the municipality is the aging index, which is rising slower than in the whole of Slovenia. This allows them to start informing citizens about the services available and to introduce new assistance and support programs that will focus primarily on community care. Another advantage is the developed social activity. As an example of good practice, everyone points to the project Prostofer. The interviewed old citizens mostly expressed satisfaction with the quality of life in the municipality. They also made various suggestions.
