  Cancer is one of the most dreaded diseases in the world. Family plays an important role in managing this disease. It provides home care for the patient, helps to increase and maintain the patient's self-sufficiency. A number of factors influence the patient's self-sufficiency, such as the age of the patient, the type of illness, the method of treatment, the patient's psychological state, the environment in which the patient is located, etc. Self-sufficiency in patients contributes to their self-esteem and to a positive perception of themselves.

  A COVID világjárvány idején az info- és telekommunikáció szerepe az egészségügyi ellátásokban különösen felértékelődött. A kapcsolattartás alternatív módját tették lehetővé az orvos és páciense között az online kommunikációs formák és a mindennapi használtban elterjedt eszközök azokban az esetekben, amikor nincs feltétlenül szükség közvetlen személyes találkozásra, illetve a vészhelyzetben megelőzheti a szükséges személyes találkozást a távkonzultáció. Ebben a szituációban újszerű felelősséget és etikai terhet jelent az orvos számára a diagnosztizálás. Ezt ugyan könnyíthetik a laboratóriumi, a képalkotó diagnosztika korábban elkészült leletei, a közvetlen kommunikációt teremtő online rendszerek, de egy új diagnózis kialakításának vannak érzékeléssel megerősíthető feltételei is. A koronavírus okozta pandémia idején az alap- és járóbeteg ellátó rendszerben a járvány megfékezése céljából – központi protokoll ajánlására – a személyes orvos-beteg találkozások számának minimalizálására törekedtek. Azokban az esetekben, ahol már korábban kialakult egy személyes kapcsolat az orvos és a beteg között, ismert a beteg kórtörténete, és kénytelenek a telemedicinát használni, éppen a legjobb értelemben vett hivatásukat gyakorolják. A telemedicina hasznosságát a pandémia idején bizonyította, további fejlesztése nagy kihívás mind az informatika, mind az orvostudomány számára.

  Purpose: The aim of this study was to reveal the perceptions of nursing students about the concept of aging through metaphors.

  Methods: The basic qualitative research design was used to evaluate the metaphors of nursing students regarding the concept of aging from their perspectives. The study sample consisted of 104 senior nursing students at Aksaray University in the 2021-2022 academic year. A purposive sampling method was used. "Metaphoric Perceptions Data Collection Form", which was prepared by the researchers in line with the literature, was used as a data collection tool. The form consists of two parts. In the first part, the demographic characteristics of the students were investigated. In the second part, the sentence “Aging is like … because … ” was given to reveal students' metaphors regarding the concept of aging. The metaphors developed by the students regarding the concept of old age were analyzed and interpreted with Metaphor Analysis. Metaphor analysis has been associated with content analysis.

  Results: The mean age of the students participating in the study was 21.65±0.99 (min: 20, max: 25). Of students, 68.6% were female, 33.3% lived in city, and 84.3% had nuclear family. About half (50.0%) of their grandparents lived in their house. Of the students, 39.2% thought about living with your parents when you start a family in the future; 52.9% lived with older adults aged 65 and over until now; 92.2% cared for an older patient during clinical practice; and 74.5% wanted to work in a health institution serving the elderly after graduation. Students produced a total of 102 valid metaphors for the concept of aging. Four main themes were obtained from the data. The main themes were aging as an ending story, a need for care, attention, and support, a new beginning, and a source of life.

  Conclusion: Nursing students' metaphors about aging are generally negative, but also contain expressions of respect.

  To establish the right diagnosis and treatment plan for a patient is at the core of any medical procedure but this is not without the need for utmost compliance of the patient. This is the case with the elderly when they do not understand their diagnosis, nor do they fully recognize the importance of adhering to the prescribed treatment plan. This study emphasizes the role of artificial intelligence and telehealth in achieving significant treatment compliance among elderly patients.

  Given the demographics of Hungary's population, the aging process and the change in the age composition project an increasingly worrying future. In an aging society, both the provision of care within the social sector and the provision of specialist care within the health sector are facing an ever-increasing anomaly. The growing number of people over the age of 65, including mostly demented people, as well as people who are limited in self-care and need professional help, must be provided to an increasing extent by the care systems. We are facing a current problem that has affected almost every family directly or indirectly. It is not only the provision of professional care that must be solved for the family members, but also the knowledge of the legal regulation of the special situation during the care, the knowledge of the rights and obligations for the care provider, as well as for the patients and their relatives.

  The population aged 60+ constitute a considerable part of patients needing nursing care. A subjective assessment represents an important aspect that needs to be respected in nursing care and included in the care provided.
  The goal of the paper is to draw attention to the importance of a subjective assessment in the population aged 60+.

  Method:
  The study was performed in the South Bohemian Region. The study was quantitative and this part was carried out using a non-standardized questionnaire. The questions were particularly focused on the assessment of the social situation, health and everyday activities. The study was focused on the population aged 60+; it included the total number of 498 respondents.

  Results:
  Motor diseases, followed by cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, were perceived as the most serious. Motor and malignant diseases had the highest influence on performing everyday activities. On the other hand, these activities were least influenced by cardiovascular diseases. The worst assessment for the physical and psychological state was awarded by respondents with cancer, which was also reflected in low satisfaction. Respondents with cardiovascular or metabolic diseases perceived their physical and psychological health best. However, from the point of view of the assessment, it needs to be mentioned in which environment the respondents lived. E.g., respondents with cardiovascular diseases mostly stayed at the home setting, which could influence their assessment and their satisfaction with the state of health. Respondents with malignant diseases spent more time at hospitals or nursing homes, which can influence the assessment of their state of health.
  The results show that the patient subjective views of their own disease and associated issues need to be included both in the nursing care and in the comprehensive multidisciplinary care. This sensitive information cannot be obtained from any objective assessments performed in nursing care.

  A 65 éven felüli, többféle krónikus betegségben szenvedő idősek esetében a rehabilitáció lényegesen nehezebb, mint a fiatalabbaknál. Akut történések, vagy meglévő betegségek rosszabbodása esetén fontos szakmai kérdést jelent, hogy a páciens mennyire alkalmas rehabilitációra. A diagnózis, a prognózis és a rehabilitálhatóság komplex vizsgálata alapján a nem rehabilitálható egyének esetében elsődleges szempont, hogy önállóságuk minél tovább megmaradjon, ami együtt jár a jobb életminőséggel. Ezt segíti a geriátriai readaptáció, amelynek minél szélesebb körben való bevezetése és alkalmazása kulcsfontosságú az időseknél.
