The paper presents the state of provision and needs for medical and social care and psychological support to elderly people temporarily displaced from the conflict zone in the East of the country. A survey of 300 elderly people, medical and social specialists and statistical processing of these data was conducted. It is shown that the socio-psychological characteristics of temporarily displaced elderly people, the peculiarities of their social adaptation, insufficient funding and low level of medical and social care cause inadequate living conditions and require the establishment of a system of care and training of care staff. Curricula for training of medical, social specialists and volunteers on acquisition of theoretical knowledge and practical skills on care of elderly people are developed and implemented.
No conflict of interests was declared by the authors.
Keywords: temporarily displaced elderly people, medical and social care, psychological support.
