Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 52
Abstract
Ageing is a process that has physiological, social, chronological and economics aspects. Ageing is seen in every living being and is a natural and inevitable period of life such as childhood, adolescence and adulthood. Prolonged life span of the human being causes a rapid increase in the proportion of the elderly in general population. As a result, some important needs peculiar to the elderly, such as fulfilling health and social necessities arise. Therefore, knowing the characteristics of the ageing period has become more important for determining and presenting the suitable social services for the elderly people. The rapid increase in the elderly population necessitates the diversification of social services oriented towards the elderly. Taking this into account, it is possible to conclude that the significance of social work for elderly people in Turkiye and the fact that more emphasis should be given to the social work are understood clearly.
