Abstract

Naloga se v prvi vrsti ukvarja s starostnikovim dojemanjem kakovostnega življenja. Glavno vprašanje, ki si ga zastavljam, je: kaj oseba v obdobju starosti potrebuje, da ima občutek, da živi kakovostno? Glavnino svoje pozornosti sem namenila odkrivanju tega, katere dejavnike kakovostnega življenja starostniki dojemajo kot najbolj pomembne in koliko se le ti skladajo z dejavniki, ki jih kot najpomembnejše za kakovostno življenje naštevajo zaposleni v dotični ustanovi oz. domu za starejše. Stanje sem preverjala s kvalitativno analizo in sicer preko delno strukturiranih intervjujev, ki sem jih izvedla v enem izmed domov za starejše. Izvedeni so bili s stanovalci in z osebjem doma. Namen naloge je, poleg odkrivanja starostnikovega dojemanja kakovostnega življenja, preveriti še pogoje za kakovostno bivanje starostnikov v domu za starejše ter odkriti kakšne potrebe stanovalcev še obstajajo, ki pa jim v domu ni zadoščeno. Rezultati intervjujev kažejo na to, da je za starostnikovo kakovost življenja v domu pomembno zagotoviti storitve, ki odgovarjajo na njegove osnovne življenjske potrebe (urejena in kakovostna prehrana, ustrezna zdravstvena oskrba in pomoč ter občutek varnosti). Pri tem moramo biti pozorni, da ne preveč posegamo v posameznikovo avtonomijo in mu skušamo nuditi čim večjo mero samostojnosti. Večjih razlik med primerjavo razumevanja kakovosti življenja s strani stanovalcev in zaposlenih v domu za starejše nisem opazila. S svojim raziskovanjem sem socialnopedagoški stroki prinesla aktualen vpogled v prakse izbranega doma za starejše na področju kakovosti življenja starostnikov. Poleg tega moja naloga služi tudi kot spodbuda razmišljanju o tem, kako bi lahko s socialno pedagoškimi znanji pripomogli k boljši organizaciji storitev dolgotrajne oskrbe in družbenemu položaju starejših nasploh.

Secondary title: Perception of quality of life by older people in a selected retirement home
Secondary abstract: The thesis primarily deals with the elderly person's perception of quality of life. The main question I ask is: what does a person in old age need to have a sense of quality of life? I focused most of my attention on discovering which factors of quality of life are considered most important by the elderly and to what extent they align with the factors listed as most important for quality of life by the employees in the respective institution or retirement home. I verified the situation through qualitative analysis, conducted via semi-structured interviews in one of the retirement homes. These interviews were carried out with residents and staff. The purpose of the thesis is not only to uncover the elderly's perception of quality of life but also to assess the conditions for a quality stay of the elderly in the retirement home and discover what needs of the residents still exist but are not being met in the home. The results of the interviews indicate that it is important for the quality of life of an elderly person in a retirement home to provide services that meet their basic life needs (well-organized and quality food, appropriate healthcare and assistance, and a sense of security), while being careful not to excessively interfere with the individual’s autonomy and to strive to provide them with as much independence as possible. I did not notice significant differences in the comparison of understanding of quality of life between the residents and the staff in the retirement home. Through my research, I have provided the social pedagogical profession with a current insight into the practices of the selected retirement home in the field of the elderly's quality of life. Additionally, my thesis also serves as a stimulus for considering how social pedagogical knowledge could contribute to better organizing long-term care services and the social situation of the elderly in general.
