Abstract
The analysis of the demographic picture of the Republic of Croatia shows that the percentage of third age people has been growing for many years. For this reason, the aim is to improve the quality of life and create adequate conditions for lifelong education of the elderly population in general, and in time by staying in rest homes for the elderly and infirm. Home pedagogy is based on the study of life and conditions in rest homes, which is the subject of this thesis. The home as an educational environment provides various pedagogical and educational opportunities for work, through which users, in addition to adapting to a new way of life, meet their other needs. This thesis presents in detail the organization of the rest home of St. Frane in Zadar, the work program of the institution, as well as the set goals that are pursued in various forms of work with users. Professional profiles of experts that are most adequate in such institutions are also available, among which the cooperation of a social pedagogue and a social worker stands out. Numerous social values and principles on which the foundation is planned are based on quality cooperation and progress of users as a common achievement.
