Povzetek

Uvod: Starizem izhaja iz predsodkov in stereotipov o lastnostih, ki jih na podlagi kronološke starosti pripisujemo starostnikom. Namen raziskave je bil ugotoviti, ali starostniki v kliničnem okolju doživljajo starizem in v kolikšni meri jih le-ta prizadene. Metode: Opisna kvantitativna raziskava je bila izvedena v zdravstveni ustanovi na priložnostnem vzorcu 132 starostnikov, starih od 65 do 90 let. Uporabljen je bil na podlagi pregleda literature zasnovan vprašalnik z 11 vprašanji zaprtega tipa. Prisotnost starizma in stopnja prizadetosti je bila merjena s tristopenjsko številsko lestvico. Za opis vzorca in sistematičen prikaz odgovorov na raziskovalna vprašanja je bila uporabljena deskriptivna univariatna in bivariatna (hi-kvadrat test za neodvisne vzorce) analiza. Rezultati: Skupno je bilo zaznanih 319 diskriminatornih dogodkov. Od 132 anketiranih je najmanj en diskriminatorni dogodek doživelo 91 (69,0 %) starostnikov. Med slednjimi se je 40 (44,0 %) starostnikov počutilo vsaj enkrat prizadeto in 23 (25,2 %) vsaj enkrat zelo prizadeto. Pri zaznavanju prizadetosti statistično pomembne razlike med skupinami glede na spol (χ2 = 13,554, p = 0,825), izobrazbo (χ2 = 20,807, p = 0,409) in starost (χ2 =19,328, p = 0,501) nismo ugotovili. Diskusija in zaključek: Raziskava potrdi prisotnost starizma v kliničnem okolju. Ker ima starizem negativen vpliv na odnos do starostnika in kakovost njegove oskrbe, je profesionalno komunikacijo s starostniki treba uvesti v izobraževanje vseh profilov zdravstvenih delavcev.
