Sažetak
Preliminary research results are presented in this paper. The aim of the research is to develop models of community care for elderly persons in accordance with the modern approach to social care for the elderly in Europe, but adjusted to the traditional and other characteristics of the elderly population in Croatia. Basic socio-demographic characteristics and the family and health status of elderly subjects are presented, along with data on the availability of different health, social and other services, as well as the needs for these services. The results are discussed as a basis for the next stage of the research project, which is the development of the comprehensive care model for elderly persons and their families considering regional differences and post-war living conditions. The need to decentralise systems of health and social care is emphasized, especially the involvement of local communities in the care for elderly people.
