Developing appropriate responses to an ageing population is recognized by policy makers throughout the developed world as a top priority, as is the vital contribution made by family caregivers. However, cultural, demographic and organizational differences between countries have encouraged diverse patterns of response to this common challenge. This book provides a systematic cross-cultural analysis of contemporary patterns and future trends in all major countries of the European Union. Additional interest is provided by including Poland emerging from the post- Communist block as the country at the forefront for joining the European Union. The book should be useful to European policy makers and academies involved in studying the health and social care needs of older people and the capacity, contribution and needs of family caregivers who provide care to older people. The book is also relevant for policy makers and researchers in other countries, mostly in North America and Australia who wish to study European approaches to supporting older people and family caregivers.

El futuro de la atención a las personas mayores en la Unión Europea representa una parte muy importante del debate sobre las responsabilidades familiares y sobre la política familiar. El número de ancianos (en especial mayores de 80 años) continuará incrementándose y el futuro de los cuidados a estas personas dependerá tanto de la capacidad de la familia como de su buena disposición.

All over Europe family carers provide the vast majority of care for dependent older people. Are they recognised, socially and politically protected and supported? This report reflects the issue of family care in 23 European countries based on National Background Reports written in 2004 as part of the EU-funded project EUROFAMCARE. It provides a comparative overview of the wide range of formal care systems and services for their support, as well as highlighting examples of interesting, innovative or good practice. Key topics have been selected, ranging from the legal status and responsibilities of family carers to the work of caring, concluding with the main policy implications for the future of family care.

Demographic, epidemiological, social and cultural trends in European countries are changing the traditional patterns of care. The next decades will see rising numbers of care-dependent older people and noncommunicable diseases as the leading cause of chronic illness and disability. Further, urbanization and the break-up of the traditional large family group will lead to gaps in the care of older or disabled family members. These changes in needs and social structure require a different approach to policy and services in the health and social sectors; a disease-oriented approach alone is no longer appropriate. Home care could be an answer to these issues: a sustainable approach to prevent the need for unnecessary acute or long-term institutionalization and to maintain people in their homes and communities as long as possible. Along with new forms of service delivery organization, technological innovation can represent a viable solution to developing home care in Europe, provided that health care systems can further enhance integration and coordination. This publication is part of the work of the WHO Regional Office for Europe to present evidence for health policy- and decision-makers in a clear and understandable form. It explains why health and social services should provide high-quality and targeted home care for disabled and older people. It provides evidence for the effectiveness of home care, shows how it can be improved, and explains the need to ensure equitable access. The publication also explores the varied cultural and care contexts in different countries, and reveals how to educate professionals and the public about these issues. This booklet seeks to broaden awareness, stimulate debate and promote action.

There is no extensive formal care provision or system supporting family carers in Poland. The cohabiting family plays a major role in organizing support for the elderly. Nevertheless, the family carers are not perceived as natural partners for both medical and social services. As a result, caring for the elderly often brings additional costs for the family and restrictions to work and income. This book presents the legal status and social situation of family carers in Poland, explains the range of services available and the possibilities to use help adapted specially for this group.

New policy responses are needed to address the many challenges posed by the ageing of populations throughout Europe, in terms of social security systems, health care, family formation, employment and education. A group of specialists has been established to examine all the aspects of the life of dependent elderly persons, including the needs of carers, care systems for sufferers from dementia, dependent elderly persons' integration in society, their participation in the life of the community and the prevention of dependence. This report argues in favour of providing integrated, multi-disciplinary, fair and accessible services which focus on individuals and respect their views in a spirit of solidarity between the generations at family, local community and national levels.
