Tóm tắt :

The proportion of the elderly population and the number of individuals who experience limitations in performing basic daily activities independently have increased in Türkiye. The need for long-term care (LTC) services has dramatically increased based on these driving forces. In addition, the need for LTC services, which were traditionally associated with housewives and non-working women in Türkiye, has also increased because women have become more involved in work outside the home. Many individuals who need assistance to maintain their functional ability cannot receive critical quality care without a significant burden on their families or finances in Türkiye. This requires multi-stakeholder health policy interventions for a solution to the need for LTC services. The Türkiye Institute for Health Policies, the Ministry of Health of Türkiye and the WHO Country Office in Türkiye came together to develop this evidence brief for policy, to be published under the aegis of the WHO European Evidence-informed Policy Network and provide evidence-informed options for policy-makers to tackle LTC-related problems in Türkiye. The work was carried out within the framework of the collaboration between the Türkiye Institute for Health Policies and WHO; it involved the Ministry of Health of Türkiye, high-level national policy institutions and national experts, and was supported by technical experts from the WHO Regional Office for Europe. The Türkiye Institute for Health Policies convened a working group comprising representatives from the Ministry of Health. The group identified, selected, appraised, and synthesized relevant research evidence on the problem; devised three options for tackling it; and weighed considerations in implementing each option. xv, 95 p.
