Sažetak
The paper describes spirituality as an area that is increasingly taking place in working with the elderly in both health and social types of care. Spiritual and spirituality are rarely mentioned in the theories of aging. Within the theory of psychosocial development, spirituality can be recognised in the phase of old age, i.e. stage of gerotranscendence (Erikson and Erikson, 1997). Accepting one’s own infirmity or dependence can be a source of growth, and the opportunity to develop spiritual qualities (patience, gratitude, pleasure in small things, satisfaction because I exist and live), but also provides a new opportunity for reevaluation of one’s entire life by giving a new meaning to all that was lived. According to the theory of gerotranscendence, people who grow in age gradually approach the meta-perspective, i.e. they gradually abandon the sensible, visible and tangible visible vision of life and the world and acquire the cosmic-transcendent vision (Tornstam, 1994, 2000). This work points to the need for education of professionals who work with older people on the importance of recognising their spiritual needs (Koening, 1994, MacKinlay, 2001).
