From the chart, we can deduce that the highest
ageing index is in Myjava district, and the lowest is in
Povazska Bystrica district.
Bočáková (2015) states that a work be longs to the
main attributes of an individual. A work represents
irreplaceable place i n human´s life. It is a basic
condition for dignified existence. Besides the material
benefits, a work provides also a feeling of self -
realization and social usefulness, and it helps create
social connections and relationships 1. Magurová
(2007) state fo llowing contributions of work and work -
life:
- Provides an opportunity to ensure financial
security
- It is a source for securing the living
- Enables social contact with othe r people
- Prov ides an opportunity for social position
and personal prestige
- Enables to assert oneself and present own
ideas and thoughts 2
Nowadays, unemployment belongs to main social
problems. Unemployment is accompanied by the
decrease of life quality, social exclu sion, decrease of
self -confidence and in some cases also social -
pathologi cal events.
Social insurance is a basis of social security. As
stated by Bočáková (2015) it is characterized according
to risks, for which insurance covering are determi ned,
and according to population insurance groups 1.
Regarding the right for benefit s, this is co nnected with
paying the contributions. Social insurance, as written
by Repková (2012), represents financial security of an
individual and family members in t he period of
appearance of life situations 5. These can be
predicted, and against wh ich the given person is
insured.
In the area of social care for the population, the
first place is taken by social support for families, which
got into unpleasant social situation.
In following chart and table, we focus on
providing the social support to families wit h children in
the self -governing region of Trencin.

household members does not reach the sum of life

The most registered persons receiving the be nefit
in material need in the self -governing region of Trencin
is in Prievidza district.
Social services are usually understood as services
of various social subjects aimed at social needs of
people, who would g et into the state of social need
without the se services, or at least in the risk zone for
falling into this state 5.
Social services are one of forms of social help for
people in unpleasant social situation. A problem of the
self -governing region of Trencin is (un)availability of
social services. People criticize long waiting period for
placing into the facilities of social services. Nowadays,
a big focus is put on the quality, financing, and
availability of social services.
Current trend in social s ervices is their
deinstitutionalizing and a tran sfer to community social
care.
Regarding the objectives and priorities of
development of social services in the self -governing
region of Trencin, we introduce following factors:
Ensuring the availability of social services in
accordance with the communit y needs
o support of persons with disabilities
o support of families with children
o support of persons in unpleasant life situation
o support of remaining the persons in home
environment
Support of the transfer of social services receivers
from institutional car e to community care
o building of independent family houses
o support of independent living
o activization for independency of persons with
disabilities
Increasing the quality of provided social services
o area of personal conditions
o area of material conditions
We have tried to map the situation in the area of
social care and social help in the self -governing region
of Trencin. In this region, institutio nal care
predominates over home care. Home care is less costly
for the state, and it is an advantage for a client / patient,
since he/she stays in a home environment. A
particularly important place in the system of social
services belongs to day -caring.
We can state that social care and social help is on
the level of all -Slovakia average.

The most registered persons receiving the be nefit
in material need in the self -governing region of Trencin
is in Prievidza district.
Social services are usually understood as services
of various social subjects aimed at social needs of
people, who would g et into the state of social need
without the se services, or at least in the risk zone for
falling into this state 5.
Social services are one of forms of social help for
people in unpleasant social situation. A problem of the
self -governing region of Trencin is (un)availability of
social services. People criticize long waiting period for
placing into the facilities of social services. Nowadays,
a big focus is put on the quality, financing, and
availability of social services.
Current trend in social s ervices is their
deinstitutionalizing and a tran sfer to community social
care.
Regarding the objectives and priorities of
development of social services in the self -governing
region of Trencin, we introduce following factors:
Ensuring the availability of social services in
accordance with the communit y needs
o support of persons with disabilities
o support of families with children
o support of persons in unpleasant life situation
o support of remaining the persons in home
environment
Support of the transfer of social services receivers
from institutional car e to community care
o building of independent family houses
o support of independent living
o activization for independency of persons with
disabilities
Increasing the quality of provided social services
o area of personal conditions
o area of material conditions
We have tried to map the situation in the area of
social care and social help in the self -governing region
of Trencin. In this region, institutio nal care
predominates over home care. Home care is less costly
for the state, and it is an advantage for a client / patient,
since he/she stays in a home environment. A
particularly important place in the system of social
services belongs to day -caring.
We can state that social care and social help is on
the level of all -Slovakia average.
