Presentation of Good Practice Cases of Physical Activity of the Elderly
In the months of November and
December 2015 Mrs.Tina Razlag Kolar, graduate of The College of Nursing in
Celje, and Senior Lecturer Boris Miha
Kaučič, M.A., visited the inhabitants of the following social care institutions: Nursing Home
Šentjur, Retirement Home Danica Vogrinec
Maribor, Retirement Home Šmarje pri Jelšah and Retirement Home at Savinja
Celje. These institutions have in the frame of project HLAW cooperated in order
to display good practice cases of physical activities of their inhabitants. They
presented the findings of the student research group from the field of health
literacy and physical activity of elderly people. They made aware of the fact
that the situation is not ideal, therefore further activities will be
necessary, which will contribute to the raise in awareness of the importance of
healthy and active aging. Good practice cases of physical activity of the
inhabitants are presented in the following film, made by the student research
group in frame of the international summer school HLAW 2015. With good practice
cases we wished to make aware of the fact that in social welfare institutions
more attention should be paid to the physical activities of the inhabitants, as
the latter are well aware of the fact that the physical activity has a positive
influence on the functional ability of the inhabitants.
