Abstract
Demographic ageing brings with it many challenges for contemporary society. One of them includes an increase in the demand for social services. This article evaluates the current capacity of residential social services for seniors in the administrative districts of municipalities with extended powers (AD MEP) in the Vysočina Region and an outline of their possible future development. Based on a population projection we compiled and the current capacity of residential social services, we calculated model estimates of the capacity of these facilities in the administrative districts of the Vysočina Region. We found that in order to maintain the current availability of accommodation services, capacity needs to be increased on average by more than one-third by 2050. The highest relative increase in capacity should occur in AD MEP Velké Meziříčí and AD MEP Jihlava, because these are the districts that are expected to see the biggest increase in the number of senior citizens.
