Starije osobe na izdržavanju kazne zatvora u Republici Hrvatskoj

The imprisonment of elderly prisoners in the Republic of Croatia is organized in such a way as to provide prisoners with accommodation appropriate to their age and health status and to provide them with optional occupational therapy and access to health care. The difference in individualized programs for executing imprisonment in the elderly in relation to other prisoners is mainly manifested in accommodation, food, health care and partly in benefits in terms of more frequent contact with the outside world. The specifics of the program for the execution of prison sentences for the elderly are described, as well as the particularities that it contains in relation to the specific needs of the elderly. Also, the problems that the elderly in the prison system face. Furthermore, numerical indicators on the elderly serving their imprisonment in the Republic of Croatia are presented. Particularly, the paper seeks to highlight the need for special interests related to the crime of older persons and their needs both in serving prison sentences and in organizing post-penitentiary reception, as stated by the very purpose of executing a prison sentence:training a person serving a prison sentence for freedom to live in accordance with law and social rules, and human treatment and respect for dignity.
