Narratives of Senior Social Entrepreneurship in the Silver Economy
55-56Megtekintések száma:40The basic assumption of the paper is the recognition that the complexity of the challenges related to population ageing forces the development of cooperative links in the area of the silver economy between public policy entities representing various sectors. In other words, there is a need for more intensive and better-coordinated cooperation between organisations in the commercial sector, public sector, non-governmental sector, informal sector and social economy sector (e.g., cooperatives).

The rights of psychiatric patients, especially in the field of dementia care
84-85Megtekintések száma:13Given 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.

A Sóstó-Gyógyfürdők Zrt. kínálata az idősödő generációknak
103-115Megtekintések száma:173Magyarország korfáját elemezve láthatjuk, hogy öregedő szerkezetű társadalomban élünk, ennek köszönhetően az idősebb generációk egyre jelentősebb mértékben fordulnak elő a gyógyturisztikai szektorban. Tanulmányom célja a generáció fogalmának és csoportosításának megértése, összehasonlítása a gyógyturisztikai célcsoportok generációs szempontú meghatározásával. A gyógyturizmus legnagyobb csoportját a 60 év feletti idősek alkotják, akik leggyakrabban mozgásszervi bántalmakkal keresik fel a gyógyfürdőket. Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg megye különösen gazdag a gyógyfürdőkben, közülük is kiemelkedik a Sóstó-Gyógyfürdő, mely nemzetközi jelentőségű fürdőnk. Tanulmányomban a szakirodalom és a statisztikák alapján jellemzem a hazai generációkat, továbbá a Sóstó-Gyógyfürdő adatai és a hely kínálata alapján a gyógyturizmus lehetőségeit – nevezetesen az egészségturisták egészségmegőrzésében és javításban, a fürdőkultúra kialakításában, valamint a szabadidő kellemes és hasznos eltöltésében – kívánom feltárni.

Local community practices to improve healthy aging in the North
25-26Megtekintések száma:90The governments of Finland, Denmark, Norway and Russia have developed national programs to address population ageing. There are also successful practices in healthy ageing at the local level in different countries, but they remain unknown among the global professional community and governmental authorities.
Healthy ageing has become an important policy issue at all levels of the society. The key international document is the World Health Organization’s (WHO) plan for a Decade of Healthy Ageing 2020–2030 which is the second action plan of the WHO ‘s Global strategy on ageing and health. The Plan consists of 10 years of concerted, catalytic, sustained collaboration to improve the lives of older people, their families, and their communities. Older people themselves are in the core of this plan, and it brings together variety of actors, including governments, civil society, international agencies, professionals, academia, the media, and the private sector. The Plan also notes that healthy ageing is not only a healthcare issue but also needs to engage many other sectors.
The aim of research was to search and introduce local community practices according the priority areas of WHO Decade of Healthy Aging action plan for gerontological policy in arctic countries.
Examples of good practices for the Priority 1 of the Plan: Change how we think, feel and act towards age and ageing
Fostering of Healthy Ageing requires fundamental shifts from existing stereotypes, prejudices, and discrimination towards older people. Older people should not be seen only as an economic burden for the welfare society, but as contributors to the state and communities, and as resourceful carriers of traditional values and wisdom. Governments eliminate age discrimination by variety of actions, such as legislative changes, and policies and programs which engage older people in decision-making.
Initiatives for Priority 2 of the Plan: Ensure that communities foster the abilities of older people
The environments which are built on decisions made not only by policy makers but involve citizens of all ages are better places to grow, play, live, work and retire. Even those people who have lost their capacity, shall be able to continue to enjoy everyday activities, to continue to develop personally and professionally, to participate and contribute to their communities while retaining their autonomy, dignity, health, and well-being.
Practices for Priority 3 of the Plan: Deliver person-centered, integrated care and primary health services to older people
Good-quality essential health services include prevention of diseases; promotion of healthy lifestyle; curative, rehabilitative, palliative and end-of-life care; safe, effective, good-quality essential medicines and vaccines; dental care; assistive technologies, while ensuring that the use of services does not cause the user financial hardship.
Local northern practices are mirrored against the recently released WHO Decade of Healthy Ageing 2020-2030 Action Plan with paying attention to indigenous elders. Based on these practices the national, regional, and municipal level authorities of the Nordic countries and Russia were suggested to consider the policy recommendations based of the research.

Az AGE Barometer 2023 áttekintése: Az idősebbek munkaerő-piaci helyzete, kritikák és az EU tagállamok jó gyakorlatai - Magyarország esete
15-24Megtekintések száma:97Az AGE Barometer 2023-as kiadását az Age Platform Europe jegyzi, melynek célja az európai statisztikákból és nemzeti szintű forrásokból származó adatok szintézise, és 19 európai ország, köztük Magyarország országszintű részletes adatainak elemzésén alapuló kritikák megfogalmazása és a tagországok jó gyakorlatainak bemutatása. A kiadvány legfontosabb célja az idősebbek munkaerő-piaci szerepvállalásának erősítése, valamint a fenntartható és minőségi munkával töltött élet elősegítése. A Barométerből kiderül, hogy az Európai Unió (EU) messze van attól, hogy elérje a 20 és 64 év közötti felnőttek 78%-os foglalkoztatottsági célját, a jelenlegi állapot 62,3%. Ennek okai az idősebbek munkaerő-piaci integrációjának különböző akadályai lehetnek, amelyek közé tartoznak a nem megfelelő támogató politikák, az ageizmus és a kedvezőtlen munkahelyi feltételek. Az eredmények mélyebb elemzése, különös tekintettel egy-egy ország, például a Magyarország-I adatok elemzése fontos lehet abban, hogy jobban megértsük az eredmények nemzeti és helyi kereteit, és hogy meghatározzuk az idősek munkaerő-piaci integrációját elősegítő politikákat és programokat, és azonosíthassuk a hiányosságokat. Jelen írás különböző módszerek - kritikai elemzés, irodalmi és szakirodalmi áttekintés, valamint tematikus elemzés - alkalmazásával vizsgálta a Barométert és más releváns forrásokat.
