Abstract

Sažetak rada: Posljedice nasilja nad osobama starije životne dobi su ozbiljan problem s kojima se susreću najranjiviji članovi našeg društva, a obuhvaćaju različite aspekte njihovog fizičkog, psihičkog i socijalnog zdravlja. Nasilje koje doživljavaju kod njih dovodi do ozbiljnih fizičkih ozljeda, smještaja u bolnice ili staračke domove, ozbiljnih poteškoća sa emocionalnim i mentalnim zdravljem, a najgora posljedica do koje dolazi je smrtnost. Kod žrtava često su prisutni osjećaji straha, srama, bespomoćnosti, anksioznosti i depresije. Sve to može dovesti do narušene kvalitete života te do društvene izolacije za osobe starije životne dobi. Stoga, kako bi se sačuvao njihov integritet, ključno je poduzimati mjere prevencije, sprječavanja i razvoja raznih intervencija te pružati podršku i zaštitu osobama starije životne dobi. Potrebno je da društvo stvori okolinu u kojoj će osobe starije životne dobi živjeti bez straha od nasilja, s pravom na poštovanje i sigurnost u posljednjoj fazi svog života.

Abstract (english)

The consequences of violence against the elderly are a serious problem faced by the most vulnerable members of our society, and include various aspects of their physical, psychological and social health. The violence they experience leads to serious physical injuries, placement in hospitals or nursing homes, serious emotional and mental health problems, and the biggest consequence is death. Victims often experience feelings of fear, shame, helplessness, anxiety and depression. All this can lead to impaired quality of life and social isolation for elderly people. Therefore, in order to preserve their integrity, it is crucial to take preventive measures, plan and develop various interventions and provide support and protection to elderly people. It is necessary for society to create an environment in which elderly people will live without fear of violence, with the right to respect and security in the last phase of their lives.
