AGEING OF POLISH POPULATION AND ITS CONSEQUENCES
Abstract
The article comprises newest data on: average life length, women fecundity, state of health of
the society, frequency of chronic illnesses, number of hospitalised persons, mobility of matured
persons. When characterising the situation of the elderly in Poland the Author states among others
that a family milieu should be fundamental place of the living o f an aged person, and a help
for such a family should be offered by professionals and volunteers from social care division as well
as by competent ‘home doctors’ . The Author emphasises an insufficient level of social education as
far as health promotion is concerned what in result causes a bad condition of the health of the
whole population and in particular - of the elderly. Housing conditions and general accommodation
should be of special preference as to their standards and adaptation to invalidity. Also of much
importance is the process of „education for the old age”, i.e. capacity o f the elderly to adapt themselves
to worsening psychological and physical possibilities.
