Abstract:Diplomsko delo je usmerjeno v obravnavo aktivnosti in terapije s pomočjo živali ter proučevanje vpliva živali na počutje starejših ljudi. Predstavljen je problem osamljenosti starejših ljudi in pomen pozitivnih vplivov živali na starejše ljudi. V tem kontekstu je središčnega pomena spoznati oziroma ugotoviti spremembe in potrebe v starosti, predstaviti in analizirati aktivnosti in terapijo z živalmi in primerjati njuno razširjenost ter uporabnost v Sloveniji in po svetu. Pri pisanju diplomskega dela smo uporabili deskriptivno metodo dela s študijem strokovne literature. Pridobljeni podatki so bili sistematizirani, analizirani in vključeni v diplomsko delo. Pregled literature je pokazal, da je osamljenost v starosti ena najpogostejših emocij, vzroki zanjo so družbena izolacija in diskriminacija starejših, umikanje starejših iz družbenega življenja, tudi določene telesne motnje. S starostjo se, poleg fizioloških sprememb, pojavijo tudi spremembe v psiholoških značilnostih in čustvovanju. Za premagovanje osamljenosti je zelo primerno druženje z živalmi in skrb zanje. Živali so konstante, ki v hitro spreminjajočem se življenju, ljudem krajšajo čas, jih nasmejijo, jim dajejo občutek varnosti. Bistvenega pomena je dotik živali, ki opogumlja in osrečuje. Živali pomagajo premagovati družbeno izoliranost in vzpodbujajo socialne stike, prinašajo lahkotnost, ljubeznivost in dajejo občutek neogroženosti. Aktivnosti in terapija s pomočjo živali sta odlični komplementarni metodi dela, ki sta uporabni v vseh okoljih, še posebej v institucionalnih oblikah pomoči. Pod aktivnosti oziroma terapijo s pomočjo živali se razumejo vsa dejanja, pri katerih se z načrtno uporabo živali doseže pozitivne odzive pri uporabniku. Terapija in aktivnosti s pomočjo živali sta v Sloveniji prisotni, vendar v manjšem obsegu kot v tujini. V nekaterih evropskih državah, kot so Avstrija, Italija in Anglija, je terapija s pomočjo živali vključena v zdravstveni sistem. Živali lahko v starosti polepšajo življenje in pomagajo lajšati težave, s katerimi se starejši človek sooča. Živalske moči, ljubezni, energije in drugih pozitivnih lastnosti, bi se morali bolj zavedati in jih koristiti.

Title:Animal - assisted activities and therapy - impact of animals on well being of older people
Abstract:This thesis presents animal-assisted activities and therapy, and the influence of animals on elderly people. The purpose of the thesis is to present the problem of loneliness of elderly people and highlight the importance of the positive effects of animals on elderly. Further goals are; knowing the changes and needs in the life of elderly people, introducing animal-assisted activities and therapy, and comparing its use in Slovenia to the rest of the world. We have chosen the descriptive method on grounds of expert literature. The data obtained have been systematized, analyzed and included in the thesis. Expert literature shows, that loneliness is the most common emotion when it comes to the elderly. Reasons are: social isolation, discrimination, lack of social life and certain physical disorders. Many physical, psychological and emotional changes occur as people get older. Taking care and spending time with animals is a great way to fight loneliness. Animals are constant and help us spend our time; make us laugh, and offer a feeling of safety in a fast changing world. The physical contact with animals is of great importance, since it encourages us and makes us happy. Animals help relieve social exclusion, encourage social contact, give a sense of ease, kindness and privilege. Animal-assisted activities and therapy are an excellent complementary method, which can be used in all surroundings, especially in institutional care. Under animal-assisted activities and therapy we understand all of the actions, for which the planned use of animals achieved positive responses to the user. Animal-assisted activities and therapy are present in Slovenia, but in a smaller amount than in other countries. In countries like Austria, Italy and England this kind of therapy is included into the health system. Animals can brighten life in old age and helps to alleviate the life difficulties which elderly face. Animal power, love, energy and other benefits, should be more aware of and benefit from.
Keywords:aging, elderly person, loneliness, animal-assisted activities, animal-assisted therapy, therapeutical animals
