dc.description.abstractAfrikaans: Die dool van hierdie ondersoek is hoofsaaklik om tot insig te kom oor die aangewese plek enrol van ouetehuise binne die raamwerk van 'n nasionale bejaardesorgprogram en om die SuidAfrikaanse praktyk van inrigtingsversorging vir bejaardes te evalueer. Omdat daar nog so min Suid-Afrikaanse vakliteratuur is oor die vraagstuk van bejaardheid en bejaardesorg, is dit nodig gevind om hierdie studie wyd aan te pak en om die onderwerp van die studie van verskeie kante te belig. Om die doel met die ondersoek te bereik, sluit dit 'n studie in van die volgende aspekte wat in verband staan met die vraagstuk: (a) Basiese kennis oor die problematiek van bejaardheid, of te wel, van die sosiale gerontologie. (b) Die algemene patroon wat bejaardesorg in ander Westerse lande aangeneern het en insigte waartoe in di~ verband gekorn is. (c) Ontwikkelings op die gebied van inrigtingsversorging vir bejaardes in ander Westerse lande asook in Suid-Afrika. (d) Gegewens oor die inwoners van Suid-Afrikaanse ouetehuise. Die eerste drie aspekte van die studie is hoofsaaklik gebaseer op gegewens wat deur middel van 'n literatuur- of bronnestudie verkry is en die laaste deur middel van 'n maatskaplike opname. Laasgenoemde opname bestaan uit 'n studie van 'n steekproef van 510 inwoners van staatsgesubsidieerde ouetehuise in Suid-Afrika. Die doel van die opname is hoofsaaklik om vas te stel wat die maatskaplike agtergrond en sekere algemene kenmerke van inwoners van ouetehuise is, watter omstandighede aanleiding gegee het tot hulle opneming in ouetehuise en hoe hulle hul lewensomstandighede in ouetehuise belewe.en_US
dc.description.abstractEnglish: The aim of this study is mainly to gain insight into the role and significance of old age homes within the framework of a national policy for the care of the aged and to evaluate the practice of institutional care of the aged in South Africa. Because there is so little South African literature which relates to the problem of ageing and the care of the aged it was thought advisable to tackle this subject on a broad front and approach it from various angles. In order to achieve this a study which deals with the following aspects of the problem is included: (a) Basic knowledge about the social problems of ageing, in other words of social gerontology. (b) The general patterns of care of the aged in other Western countries and insights which have been gained as a result. (c) Developments in the field of institutional care of the aged in South Africa and other Western countries. (d) Data relating to the residents of South African old age homes. The first three aspects of the study are based mainly on data obtained by means of a study of the relevant literature and the last part on data obtained by means of a social survey. This survey made use of a sample of 510 residents of state subsidized old age homes in South Africa. The aim of the survey was mainly to establish the social background and certain general characteristics of residents of old age homes as well as the circumstances giving rise to their admission to old age homes and how they experience life in old age homes.en_US
