Relevance: In Kazakhstan, the subpopulation of those who are 60 years and older constitutes 11,1% of the entire population whereas, e.g., in Germany – 28.0% and in Japan – 33.4% . On the other hand, the birth rate in Kazakhstan reaches 2.6 children/female while in Taiwan or Portugal – only 1.2. Thus, in comparison with many other countries of the world, Kazakhstan’s inhabitants are still relatively young. However, the population of Kazakhstan will be ageing ; hence it is necessary to pose and get answers to questions about the care for older persons in advance.
Purpose of the project: The aim of the study was to characterise the needs of the older inhabitants of Kazakhstan to ultimately create an algorithm to satisfy them.
