Opis:
Considering the increased demographic aging and system changes in the welfare system in Poland, home care became one of the most important forms of taking care of disabled or elderly persons. Although the country is rooted in the idea of a nanny state, based on large institutions and providing minimum income, for a long time now family has been considered as the basic provider of informal care to the elderly. The aim of the present study is to give some insight into the resources of adult children providing care to their elderly, disabled parents. In order to acquire a comprehensive perception of the phenomenon, the authors chose an interpretavist paradigm and applied a phenomenographic method. 21 participants, aged 41–65, who were caregivers of their parents, took part in semi-structured interviews. Two main research problems were formulated: (1) How do the participants perceive their resources as caregivers of their elderly, disabled parents? (2) What kind of support related to the care of their parents do they consider essential? Results: The participants distinguish two main kinds of resources: internal (e.g. values, passions, feelings for parents, economic situation) and external (e.g. parents, family, friends, professionals, medical equipment and centers they have access to). The narratives of the participants also indicate a number of needs they experience. Implications for practice are discussed.

Opis:
The aim of this pilot study was to explore whether home care service personnel used knowledge and skills in transfer technique in their daily work; knowledge and skills gained by participating in training programmes, and to identify factors that may hinder and support their use. Focus group interviews were held with 2 home care service groups in 2 Swedish towns. Individual interviews were conducted with the personnel’s managers, unit leaders and safety representatives. Qualitative content analysis was used. The findings revealed that the personnel tried to use their knowledge and skills. However, there were both hindering and supporting factors for the use of safe work technique. The findings indicate that training programmes in transfer technique should not be implemented as isolated actions without considering the physical environment, the wishes of persons receiving care and their relatives, the work organisation, the safety culture and the role of managers.

The author looks at the home telecare (sometimes wrongly identified as telemedicine), i.e. remote care of elderly and physically less able people, which provides the support and reassurance needed by them to continue living in their own homes. The paper presents the experience of implementation of such type of care in the communities of the Pomorskie voivodship in Poland. The author discusses the idea of home telecare systems created by communities, as well as conditions that need to be met in order to ensure their effectiveness and usefulness.

Opis:
This paper is a reaction to a number of critical articles in Gothenburg’s media about privatized care services for elderly, which were published in the last year. Home services for elderly are seldom studied separately. Nonetheless they deserve researchers’ attention since the Swedish authority perceive home services as the best solution for older people according to Ädelreform of 1992, secured by the Social Service Act of 1980: 620 (Socialtjänstlag 1980: 620), 19§ and 20§ and its following adjustments that did not changed the first law in this regard (e.g., Socialtjänstlag 1997: 313; 1998: 384), and since especially knowledge about differences between public and private agencies providing home care services for the elderly is severely lacking (Öppna jämförelser: vård och omsorg om äldre, 2012). Hence, in this paper I ask: What have the public and private home care providers in common? What differences can be observed in their understanding of home care services for elderly and working methods? What lessons can be learned from the implementation of the state delegation of home care services for elderly to the municipal authorities? The purpose of this study is to compare and evaluate the public and private home care services for elderly given economic limitations after delegating them to municipality in the Gothenburg Region. The additional aim is to make politicians conscious about this development. The theoretical model of delegation and decentralization by Cristiano Castelfranchi and Rino Falcone (1998) and the Resource Dependency Theory by Pfeffer and Salancik (1978) constitute the theoretical reference frame. The study is based on an analysis of state regulation, policy documents and semi-structured interviews with the chief responsible for public and private home care services for elderly at the municipal level. This study reveals that the delegation of care for elderly to the municipalities faced some serious problems not be solved until 2013 and surprisingly that these problems are especially seen where the recipients of such care don’t have a choice on their service provider. The lesson drawn from the research is that if politicians or other authorities take away the right from people to make their own decisions about their own lives this inevitably results in dissatisfaction and subsequent reforms.

Opis:
With transition process in Slovenia, starting in 1991, also care for older people was considerably transformed. Policy measures and new services for older people living at home and their informal, mostly family, carers were the most essential contribution in this area. Social home care, as one of these services, is the focus of the paper. The first Slovenian representative survey of social home care users (2013) was used to assess the care arrangements among users of social home care. Multiple cluster analysis for symbolic data (no care, formal care only, informal care only, mixed care) carried out on 22 activities of daily living, discovered five groups of social home care users. Clusters were empirically aligned with availability of informal care network and need for care. Care arrangements empirically show compensatory and supplementary function of formal care in complementary model. Social home care was the most frequently selected additional source of care in assessment of future need for care across all clusters, with informal network being the second most frequently selected source.
W 1991roku w Słowenii rozpoczął się proces transformacji, któremu towarzyszyła spora zmiana modelu opieki nad starszymi osobami: nowe usługi dla osób starszych mieszkających w domu i ich nieformalnych, w wielu przypadkach spokrewnionych, opiekunów. Tematem artykułu jest opieka domowa oparta na zasadach pomocy społecznej, stanowiąca jedną z tych nowych usług. Pierwsze reprezentatywne badanie dotyczące użytkowników tej formy opieki domowej dla Słowenii (2013) zostało wykorzystane do przeprowadzenia oceny obejmującej osoby powiązane z opieką domową. Analiza wielu podzbiorów (Multiple cluster analysis) danych symbolicznych (brak opieki, wyłącznie formalna opieka, wyłącznie nieformalna opieka, opieka mieszana) przeprowadzona dla 22 codziennych czynności wykazała, że istnieje pięć grup osób działających w ramach usług społecznych opieki domowej. Podzbiory empirycznie przyporządkowano do dostępności sieci opieki nieformalnej i zapotrzebowania na opiekę. Ustalenia w zakresie opieki empirycznie wykazują funkcję kompensacyjną i uzupełniającą opieki formalnej w komplementarnym modelu. Opiekun domowy świadczący usługi społeczne był najczęściej wybieranym dodatkowym źródłem opieki w ramach oceny przyszłego zapotrzebowania na opiekę wśród wszystkich podzbiorów, natomiast sieć nieformalna stanowiła drugie najczęściej wybierane źródło.

Introduction and objective. Deficits of vitamin resources constitute a significant public health problem, especially among the elderly population. The aim of the research was to determine the level of vitamin 25 (OH) D and vitamins from group B in the chronically ill elderly in domiciliary care, depending on functional capacity and coexisting diseases. Materials and method. The pilot study included 137 patients staying in long-term domiciliary care. Samples of the participants’ venous blood was obtained for laboratory tests. Centrifuged serum was used to determine the level of the following biochemical parameters: vitamin 25 (OH)D, B12, folic acid and total protein, albumin, triglycerides, total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol. Assessment of the functional status of patients was made by using the Barthel scale. Results. More than 3⁄4 of the patients with functional deficit (according to Barthel’s score 0–85 points) were deficient in vitamin 25 (OH)D, while folic acid values were below the reference values in more than half of the patients. Respondents with lower functional efficiency were characterised by a reduced average value of vitamin 25 (OH)D and folic acid. Conclusions. The studied group of the chronically ill elderly was characterised by a deficiency of vitamin D3 and folic acid. Subjects with a functional impairment deficit show a reduced mean value of vitamin 25 (OH)D and folic acid in the blood serum, compared to the group of patients with higher mobility.

Opis:
The necessity is emphasized to distinguish between the traditional model of data acquisition reported by a patient in doctor’s office and the more valuable and desired model to become acquainted with the core of the problem by going to a patient’s domicile. In the desired model it is possible to come across various determinants of health during home visits. Family members can be approached and there is a possibility to evaluate the relationships between the patient and his loved ones. One can visually assess one’s living conditions and predictable environmental hazard. For several years, the desired model has been put into practice by general practitioners and home health care nurses. Recently this model is also promoted by “health care therapists” who are members of “teams of home health care”. The authors, being convinced of the merits of “home and environmental model” of practical medicine, have developed a method of recording and illustrating data collected during visits in patient’s home. The elaborated tool helps to communicate and exchange information among general practitioners, home health care nurses, social workers of primary health care centers and specialists. The method improves the formulation of the plan of further therapeutic steps and remedial interventions in psycho-social relations and living conditions of patients.
Autorzy pracy podkreślają na wstępie, iż należy rozróżnić tradycyjny model obsługi problemu zdrowotnego, zgłaszanego przez pacjenta w gabinecie lekarza, na ogół przy jego biurku od bardziej wartościowego sposobu zaznajomienia się z istotą problemu poprzez udanie się do miejsca zamieszkania chorego. W trakcie takiej wizyty domowej jest możliwe zapoznanie się z rozmaitymi uwarunkowaniami stanu zdrowia pacjenta. Można poznać członków rodziny i ocenić relacje jakie zachodzą pomiędzy chorym a jego osobami najbliższym. Można naocznie ocenić jego warunki bytowe i ewentualne szkodliwości środowiskowe. Od kilkunastu lat ten drugi model czasami realizują lekarze rodzinni i tzw. pielęgniarki środowiskowe (środowiskowo – rodzinne). Ostatnio propaguje się poszerzenie takiego sposobu zaznajamiania się z problemami zdrowotnymi przez zalecenie go tzw. terapeutom środowiskowym, którzy są członkami tzw. „zespołów leczenia środowiskowego”. Autorzy pracy, będąc przekonani o zaletach owego „środowiskowego modelu” medycyny praktycznej opracowali metodę odnotowywania i ilustrowania danych pozyskiwanych w trakcie wizyt w domu chorego. Opracowanie przez nich narzędzie ułatwia przekazywanie i dyskutowanie danych pomiędzy pielęgniarka środowiskową, a lekarzami ośrodków podstawowej opieki zdrowotnej i specjalistami jak i pracownikami socjalnymi. Metoda doskonali ustalanie planu dalszych działań terapeutycznych i interwencji korygujących relacje psychospołeczne i warunki bytowe pacjentów.

This study provides an overview of the legal aspects of long-term care (LTC) and institutional care for the elderly. It investigates whether LTC services for seniors could be recognized as a distinct human right, possibly through a United Nations convention. The study explores the existence and core components of the right to LTC and examines the minimum standards for its investigation, implementation, and enforcement. Additionally, it analyzes the specific rights of seniors that contribute to the right to care for dependent persons while also considering the intersectionality of this right and its relationship with other human rights. The study investigates the legal frameworks for protecting the right to LTC in various countries and assesses legal solutions derived from general legal instruments and special standards, particularly those concerning individuals with disabilities. Furthermore, it discusses proposed laws aimed at preserving the dignity of seniors and preventing unnecessary examinations and abuse. The study ultimately evaluates whether the right to LTC is an independent right or an extension of the rights to healthcare and social security.

Opis:
Ensuring care and appropriate standard of living to elderly people constitute highly significant aspects of both the state and local social policy. However, the practice shows clearly that the issue of old age has never been a strength of the social policy in our country. One could even get the impression that in old age quality of life does not need to be increased, while it can even be decreased. Such approach to the issue of old age should be highly objectionable. Old age, as the last stage of one’s life, should be lived in dignity, while maintaining the sense of security. Special care and attention should be paid to single people, chronic patients and those with poor financial situation. An appropriately managed nursing home is a place that could protect a senior citizen from social exclusion, while providing professional care and good quality of life. The issue is of high significance as in Poland the public nursing services have not been yet developed well and their quality often remains a matter of concern, also in the moral aspect. This paper enters the discourse about the need of institutional support for the senior citizens and points out to the quality of life of residents of nursing homes.

Purpose: To assess the degree of independence in physical activities of daily living for patients under long-term in-home nursing care; to evaluate any changes in physical activities of daily living at entry and after 90 days of in-home nursing care. Materials and methods: InterRAI-HC (Residental Assessment Instrument – Home Care) questionnaire was used as a tool according to the protocol and assessed patients at entry and again after 90 days. The participants consisted of 100 consecutive patients who were newly admitted to long-term in-home nursing care.Results: The analysis of total dependence showed that more than 50% of patients were entirely dependent in eight out of ten specified physical activities of daily living (except mobility in bed and food consumption). Intention to treat analysis was performed; the percentages of patients totally dependent in performing eating and mobility in bed actions increased significantly by the 90-day follow-up. Also a comparison of the mean value of independence for analyzed activities did not change significantly over the 90 days, with the only exception being the mean value of independence for dressing up the upper part of the body, which significantly improved after 90 days per protocol analysis. A high mortality rate is noted among these patients (15% by the 90 day follow-up). This probably resulted from the restrictive qualification criteria used in Poland for patients to receive this form of in-home healthcare service.Conclusions: The majority of patients who are under long-term in-home nursing care in Poland are entirely dependent when it comes to the physical activities of daily living.

Opis:
Among various publications regarding end-of-life care in Poland there is one piece of important research that shows a difficult situation for family caregivers in end-of-life care in Poland, who often lack recognition and support and face a lonely struggle, especially in home care settings (Janowicz, 2019a). The Polish Government published documents in support of family caregivers for the first time in 2019, recognizing respite care and allocating money to some of them. Poland has successfully implemented British standards of hospice and palliative care, making it the best in Central-Eastern Europe; the same could be done in supporting carers in family settings (Krakowiak, 2020a). We have already learnt and benefited from the experience of the British organisation Carers UK, who have been operating successfully for more than 50 years and working towards inclusion of formal and informal care (Klimek, 2020). But how can we move forward in helping those who face loneliness and feelings of helplessness as family carers? We can learn from those who have already developed tools and created strategies supporting family caregivers. Exploring the educational strategies of supporting organizations from the UK, will help to point towards possible solutions to this social and educational challenge in Poland, helping to reduce the loneliness of carers in the home care settings. Most families still feel isolated, while most of our local communities do not support those who care, often for many months and years. Social educators and social workers need to tackle the questions of loneliness and isolation that many family caregivers face. First steps have been made and first publications issued, but more robust strategies and practical solutions are needed. Newest facts and figures from Carers UK documents and Best Practice In Supporting Carers by Carer Positive Employer in Scotland (2020) will help to show existing strategies used for and by employers. Among many existing initiatives this one regarding combining care and work could be very important to recognise the needs of working carers, sharing their job with the duty of constant care at home. Action is urgently needed in Poland, where many people do a full-time job alongside caring at home. Recognition of family carers’ needs by their workplace, support from employers and flexibility in working hours is still a rare exception, and it should be changed. The Covid-19 pandemic has fully exposed the problems of carers of dependent people around the world and also in Poland, especially difficult for those who combine care with work.
