Transformovat domovy pro seniory? Ne, budovat nová zařízení!
Transform homes for the elderly? No, build new facilities!

Summary/Abstract: Recent weeks have witnessed an escalation in the animated discussion on the need to transform residential social services. This time, however, it does not concern the transformation of services for persons with disabilities, but the suggestion that it is necessary to transform homes for the elderly into small family-type facilities with a maximum capacity of 25 clients. One does not wish to be considered in any way opposed to transformation; naturally, one has to agree with any measures that contribute towards improving the living conditions of those elderly who are dependent on daily care due to their adverse health condition, but we must ask the question: Will Czech seniors be able to cover the costs of such care?
