Abstract

A specialist in elder care, Dr. Muriel Gillick examines the complications of lives lived far longer than ever before. This book aims to help the frail elderly and their families cope with the often unforeseen dilemmas of aging: the most common chronic ailments, the acute problems, and their impact on living options. Tracing the stories of four people, Dr. Gillick highlights the various challenges and decisions that arise when frailty develops and discusses the importance of prevention and social responsibility in assessing, treating, and living with frailty.

Abstract

Notre société se focalise aujourd'hui sur les handicaps, les dépendances, la perte d'autonomie, les déficiences de la personne âgée en désignant cette population sous le vocable « personne fragilisée ». Le terme d'accompagnement est récemment apparu dans les champs sanitaire et médico-social : en quoi se distingue-t-il de la « prise en charge » aux connotations plus médicales ? Qu'attend-on aujourd'hui de l'accompagnement ? Quelles sont les bases éthiques qui le fondent ? Comment se met-il en place dans le quotidien et dans les temps de crise ? Les auteurs soutiennent ici une conception active de l'accompagnement construit autour d'un échange entre une personne aidée et une personne aidante. Dans les réponses nouvelles qu'ils développent dans cet ouvrage, ils interrogent les comportements des professionnels et ceux de l'environnement des personnes âgées fragiles. En s'appuyant sur une observation fine des différents acteurs impliqués, ils décrivent ce que pourraient être l'entraide intergénérationnelle, la formation, la transdisciplinarité comme éléments qui contribuent à un accompagnement - et non une prise en charge - de qualité.

Abstract

Japan's shift toward a super-aged society is being fueled by a combination of demographic factors. These include declining marriage and fertility rates and increases in life expectancy enabled by advances in medical science and improved nutrition and living conditions. Another trend is the rise in the number of older single-person or couple households as a result of various lifestyle and demographic changes, including a general decrease in average household size, the rise of smaller nuclear households, and the growing number of people who remain unmarried. The socioeconomic challenges arising from an aging and declining population have been at the forefront of Japan's political and public policy discourse since the rapid population aging trend was first recognized in the 1980s. Central to the aging population challenge is the decline in working-age population, which could lead to labor force shortages and lower economic growth. Recognition of these growing challenges has engendered a shift in aging policy toward aging in place and healthy aging, with older persons encouraged to remain active and in their existing communities for as long as possible. The idea is not only to improve the well-being of older persons and their quality of life, but also to reduce the burden on the state of providing for the burgeoning health and welfare needs of a super-aged population. Japan has implemented several policies, guidelines, and programs to promote healthy aging. Japanese authorities and cities are implementing several projects in housing and homebased care to facilitate aging in place. Some of these projects are reviewed in this report.
