Summary
The article deals with the current issues with care allowance, in terms of care for geriatric patients. It discusses the most significant impediments of the process of evaluation of the patient’s condition. The conclusion is that some of the impediments are caused by the legislative (evaluation in the patient’s natural environment), whereas some other ones are “merely” caused by lack of cooperation from the various departments and specialities. Functional evaluation (Complex Geriatric Assessment) is a necessary basis for evaluation of the patient’s request for care allowance.
