title: [Conceptual basis of evaluation of life quality of elderly people in the institutional care system].
abstract: Modern concepts and indicators of quality of life used in gerontological practices are discussed. The influence of institutional care system with the elderly person as part of the quality of life indicators is shown. The theoretical and methodological combinations of approaches as innovations on the crossing of different scientific paradigms and professional ways of solving the problem are analyzed. Structural models, tools for the measurement of the quality of life and its modification in the institutional care system are defined. This approach stimulates elderly people to be active co-producer of own quality of life, strengthen their autonomy and resource potential.
