The Subjectively Perceived Quality of Life of Seniors Living in Institutional Conditions
The presented work considers the quality of life of seniors living in institutional (residential) conditions. It is necessary to think about whether the increasing number of older people and their increasing age are growing proportionately to the quality of their lives. It is important to increase and improve the quality of life of older people, as healthy, wise and happy old people are a reflection of a mature society. In our work, we present the testimony of various old people, which gives us the opportunity of perceiving their subjective views on their quality of life.
