THE IMPACT OF THE COVID 2019 PANDEMIC ON THE SOCIAL RELATIONS OF SENIORS WITH NEUROCOGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT (CZECH REPUBLIC, YEAR 2020, 2021)
Abstract
The subject of the study is the identification of psychosocial factors and the needs of seniors with cognitive impairment in a situation of persistent pandemic Covid 19. The theoretical basis is the clinical aspects of the target group and the conceptual approach to social health. The paper specifically describes the partial results of a part of longitudinal research, continuously implemented since 2013 within specialized research projects for universities at the Institute of Special Education Studies, Faculty of Education, Palacky University in Olomouc. This part of the research took place in 2020/21, especially in the Home for the Elderly in Lukov. The researchers focused mainly on identifying the deficits and problems that the pandemic brought to the target group and their carers in areas related to psychosocial needs and to predict proposals that would lead to the optimization of the current situation with regard to a similar situation that may occur in the future.
