Abstract
- The paper outlines some determinants of the formation and present situation of the several kinds of services for the aged with regard to a broad concept of intervention. There are some obstacles for the idea of intervention: -the nearly uncontrolled growth of the number of places in homes for the aged, -the present situation of the medical system, -lack of trained staff, -lack of tools for assessment and evaluation. Nevertheless the disproof of the deficit theory of aging made a lot of people wait for practical suggestions in respect of intervention.
